Contact SupplierWe are offering iodine. It is used in pleurodesis (fusion of the pleura because of incessant pleural effusions). For this purpose, povidone-iodine is equally effective and safe as talc, and may be preferred because of easy availability and low cost. 2.5% buffered pvp-i solution can be used for prophylaxis of neonatal conjunctivitis (ophthalmia neonatorum) which can lead to blindness, especially if it is caused byneisseria gonorrhoeae, or chlamydia trachomatis. Pvp-i appears to be very suitable for this purpose because unlike other substances it is efficient also against fungi and viruses (including hiv and herpes simplex).
