Addex Ointment 10gm

Addex Ointment 10gm is a topical antiseptic and wound care medication used to treat a wide range of infected and chronic wounds, including pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, and surgical wounds. It works by slowly releasing iodine, a potent antimicrobial agent, into the wound site to eliminate bacteria, fungi, and protozoa that can delay healing.

The cadexomer component is a starch-based polymer that absorbs excess wound exudate, pus, and debris, keeping the wound environment clean and moist — conditions that are ideal for tissue regeneration and faster healing. As the iodine is released, cadexomer beads absorb wound fluid and gradually turn from brown to white, signaling the need for dressing replacement.

This controlled-release action not only ensures sustained antimicrobial protection but also minimizes the risk of iodine toxicity and irritation, making Addex Ointment 10gm a preferred choice among wound care specialists.
