Should be in every first aid kit !
Povidone Iodine has been known to me as a wound cleanser for the past 40 years. I was introduced to it's use as an effective surgical hand scrub when training to become an OR RN. I've used the soap solution for surgical site cleansing, and have noticed the degreasing power it has to thoroughly remove grime and body soil when patients are injured traumatically. I've used dilute solutions of Povidone Iodine for compound fractures and deep wounds on extremities, as well as on the sterile field (diluted) for irrigating sinuses, open laparotomy cases in the event of contamination or bowel rupture. In a foreign setting, scrubbing an area that suffered scrapes from live coral is the only way I know to remove any and all traces of coral to insure none remains. At home it is a natural for cuts and abrasions. It has the added benefit of minimal 'stinging' when you need to treat a cut. Very few people are actively allergic to the contents. I suggest everyone have some on hand for family use. Remember to remove jewelry before washing hands with it ----- will stain your gold wedding rings!
