IODOSORB Gel is a sterile antimicrobial dressing formulation of Cadexomer Iodine. When applied to the wound, IODOSORB absorbs 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.
