Smith & Nephew Iodosorb Cadexomer Iodine Gel

Iodosorb Gel is the only wound gel that inhibits bacterial growth as it absorbs exudate. Specially formulated for use on wet, exudating ulcers, diabetic and venous ulcers, pressure sores and infected wounds. As absorption occurs, the cadexomer releases iodine, which reduces the bacterial load without affecting granulating tissue. As the gel absorbs exudate, iodine is released, killing bacteria and changing color as the iodine is used up.
