IODOSORB™ Powder

  • IODOSORB 0.9% Cadexomer Iodine Powder is an effective topical antimicrobial which prevents the formation of mixed species biofilm, typical of chronic wounds[1] and has been shown to physically disrupt and kill mature biofilms[2][3] while enabling faster healing,** compared to standard care[4][5][6]
  • Absorbs up to 7x its own weight of wound exudate.
  • For chronic and infected wounds where bioburden is a barrier to healing.
  • Physically disrupts mature biofilm by absorbing it into the dressing and reducing the bacterial load within the biofilm.
  • Remove slough, debris and bacteria.
