Cipladine Ointment is applied topically.

Cipladine Ointment contains Povidone-Iodine (5%), which works on your body as follows:

• Broad-Spectrum Antiseptic: Povidone-Iodine acts as a broad-spectrum antiseptic that effectively inhibits the growth of various infection-causing microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and viruses.

• Microbial Cell Wall Penetration: This active ingredient has the ability to penetrate into microbial cell walls which results in its antimicrobial action.

• Oxidising Essential Cellular Components: Povidone Iodine oxidises essential components within microbial cells including proteins, nucleotides, and fatty acids. This oxidation process leads to microbial cell death thereby managing and preventing infection.

• Store Cipladine Ointment in a cool, dry place, typically at room temperature of below 25°C.

• Keep it away from direct sunlight and moisture to preserve its efficacy.

• Ensure it is safely out of the reach of children and pets.

• If you have minor burns or wounds that are being managed with Cipladine Ointment, maintaining a balanced diet rich in protein can support skin repair and regeneration. Foods high in vitamin C, such as oranges and strawberries, can also aid in wound healing.

• Besides, regular gentle cleaning of your wound with mild soap and warm water can help prevent infections. Remember to dry the area thoroughly before applying the ointment.
