    Smith and Nephew Iodosorb Cadexomer Iodine Gel from HealthyKin.com is a sterile formulation of Cadexomer Iodine. When applied to the wound, Iodosorb cleans it by absorbing fluids, removing exudate, slough and debris and forming a gel over the wound surface. As the gel absorbs exudate, iodine is released, killing bacteria and changing color as the iodine is used up. A 3-in-1 mode of action kills bacteria, manages exudate and debrides the wound bed.

    Iodosorb Cadexomer Iodine Gel Features:

    • Exudate and debris is removed effectively
    • Iodosorb helps to promote a clean wound healing environment
    • A change in color (white) indicates when Iodosorb should be changed
    • Gel formed over the wound promotes moist healing
    • Accelerated healing rates can lead to earlier patient discharges
    • 2½ to 3 year shelf life, even if opened
    • 1.4oz (40g) tube
    Iodosorb Cadexomer Iodine Gel Instructions:
    • Open tube and squeeze gel on to a non-adherent gauze to the shape of the ulcer and to a depth of 3 to 4 mm
    • Position the gel face of the gauze on the wound surface and apply mild pressure to fix in place
    • Gently take off the existing dressing which should be moistened with saline if it is tending to adhere to the wound surface
    • Remove any remaining Iodosorb with a gentle stream of saline or sterile water if applicable
    • Gently blot away any excess fluid before re-applying Iodosorb

      I have been using this ointment since my mother was discharged from the hospital 2 weeks ago for a stage 4 wound which was debrided. Since the bacteria traveled into the bone of her buttock, it was deemed inoperable because of her advanced age (102). Even though she will not be able to survive this open wound for an extended period of time, Iodosorb seems to be keeping the infection in check and maintaining the surrounding tissue intact.

      Iodosorb was prescribed by my doctor for a foot wound. It is easy to apply and very effective. CVS charged $150 for a 40g tube, Costco $90. I paid $50 including shipping and had it delivered within 36 hours. Amazing!!!!

      Excellent I was reluctant to buy because of the cost. But it is worth getting something that does the job! The product does promote healing on difficult long term wounds.... particularly deep one. Long term wounds can wind up playing host to multi-bacterial colonies of drug resistant bactertia. The slow release iodine is vere effective in treating such infections
