special instructions

 

With frequent application on a large area of ​​the wound surface and mucous membranes, systemic reabsorption of iodine can occur, which may affect the tests of thyroid functional activity.

 

In cases of thyroid dysfunction, the use of the drug is possible only under the strict supervision of a physician.

 

During the application of povidone iodine, iodine absorption by the thyroid gland may decrease, which may affect the results of some diagnostic studies (eg, thyroid scintigraphy, determination of protein-bound iodine, measurements with radioactive iodine), and may interact with iodine preparations used for the treatment of diseases of the thyroid gland. To obtain undistorted results of thyroid scintigraphy after long-term povidone-iodine therapy, it is recommended to withstand a sufficiently long period of time without this drug.

 

The use of the drug in newborn babies is possible only in case of emergency, after the study of thyroid function.

 

Care should be taken with regular use on damaged skin in patients with chronic renal failure.

 

It is necessary to ensure that there is no excess solution left under the patient. Do not heat the solution before use.

 

At the application site, a colored film is formed that persists until the release of the entire amount of active iodine, which means the drug ceases to function. Coloring on the skin and tissues is easily washed off with water.

 

Do not use when biting insects, domestic and wild animals.

 

Drug Interactions

 

Betadine is incompatible with other antiseptic agents, especially containing alkalis, enzymes and mercury.

 

The combined use of povidone iodine and hydrogen peroxide, as well as enzyme preparations containing silver and tauloridine, for the treatment of wounds, as well as antiseptic drugs, leads to a mutual decrease in efficiency.

 

In the presence of blood, the bactericidal action may decrease, but with increasing solution concentration, the bactericidal activity may be increased.

It is treated by Betadine is just some kind of torture. I'll begin the order:

1) the candles very quickly melt and leak out, which causes a lot of inconvenience and make the laundry soiled

2) And about the side effects in the form of severe burning and discharge and did not say. Although I did not have an allergy to iodine, but when using these candles I burned so that I had a feeling that I would burn the entire crotch, it was so strong. And then went the selection and it was not just a fluid from the candles themselves, namely natural emissions - the cause is transparent, but still not the order

3) The effect is weak. Assigned to treat erosion, but until the end it was not pulled off, which the doctor said was not enough to finally get rid of the bacteria responsible for the occurrence of erosion.

Hello! They registered candles for 14 days, but said that they can be put in the morning and in the evening, then in 7 days you can cope! It is clear that during the application of sex can not be engaged, and after the end of the application, after what time can you start sexual activity?

Natasha, in general such a question has never been asked and in the directories you will not find such. It seems that if the underlying disease does not bother you and is cured, then there are no special temporary regimes, even the day after the end of the admission.

Although the instructions for the use of Betadin and written that candles are not recommended after 3 months of pregnancy (your case), but it is worth sending that the doctor can decide individually the purpose of treatment after this time.

To me here too have appointed or nominated betadin on 16 week of pregnancy for 14 days, having read through the instruction, I have begun to doubt. She turned again to her doctor. My doctor assured me that there is nothing terrible and this drug is allowed in pregnancy for application by standards. At the same time, she was surprised to learn that it is not recommended to use it from 3 months. I was not offered alternatives, and I did not become self-medicated. But six days later I have used betadine and I think I should leave it or continue the treatment, it is very much feedback and instruction that embarrass me.

OksanaIf you have been treated with Betadin for 6 days and have not noticed a negative, then I can advise you to continue the treatment. Yes, the instructions say that the drug is not recommended from the 3 months of pregnancy, but immediately there is a footnote that under medical supervision such treatment is possible and at a later date.Probably, your doctor does not have another option or scheme for treatment, and self-medication in your situation is dangerous.

When the doctor prescribed betadine, I immediately asked if I have an allergy to iodine. And then in this preparation iodine is contained. She prescribed me for bacterial vaginosis, she put the candles on for 14 days. I did not have unpleasant sensations. But I still recommend using the gasket, but the volume may be a little bit from the candles.

Yes, the color of this Betadina is also ....))) It's called goodbye to beautiful underwear))) But, and so the drug is very good, effective. I completed the course in 14 days, and forgot about the bacterial vaginosis completely. Here, only it is necessary to consider one nuance, it is a possible allergy to iodine. But, thank God, I do not suffer this way.

What candles can I replace instead of Betadine?
Administrators
admin
irina.irina, Betadin suppositories can be replaced by the following analogues for the active substance (I quote only suppositories or vaginal tablets): Betadine, Vokadin, Iodovidone. If you need to change the drug, because the former did not come up with side effects, it is better to turn to the treating doctor for this matter, since the active substance of the above analogs is the same and the pimple will pass, most likely, too. You need a drug from another class, but to treat your disease.

I was assigned candles by Betadin. And I forgot to tell the doctor that I have hypothyroidism. Can it be used for hypothyroidism?
Administrators
admin
murkaWith hypothyroidism, you can apply Betadine suppositories. The composition of the drug contains iodine (povidone-iodine), so the range of possible limitations and diseases in which candles are restricted is indicated exhaustively:
1) dysfunction of the thyroid gland (nodal colloid goiter, endemic goiter and Hashimoto tiroiditis, hyperthyroidism);
2) adenoma of the thyroid gland;
3) simultaneous use of radioactive iodine.

Another point worth noting this point:
During the use of Betadine, thyroid absorption may decrease, which may affect the results of some diagnostic studies (eg, thyroid scintigraphy, determination of protein-bound iodine, measurements with radioactive iodine), and may interact with iodine preparations used for treatment diseases of the thyroid gland. To obtain undistorted results of thyroid scintigraphy after long-term povidone-iodine therapy, it is recommended to withstand a sufficiently long period of time without this drug.

Good afternoon. When smearing on the flora, a large number of leukocytes was found (before the visit to the gynecologist for a month, the acute respiratory viral infection with high fever and strong cough was ill - an antibiotic was prescribed). The gynecologist has appointed candles Betadine and metronidazole. Track. reception on 29.12.2015.On the 4th day of reception, the state of health is terrible. Nauseous, as with toxicosis (men only ended), even at the sight of food, sweet in the mouth, on the lining in addition to the flow of the candle, bright blood in a small amount and there was a slight burning sensation, the heaviness in the lower abdomen (although she came to the doctor in general with no symptoms except small discharge) . I do not know what to do. I did not put on the candle in the morning. Something scary. In the clinic they told me to wait for my appointment on the coupon. Continue or stop treatment - I do not know what to do.

Natta21If very bad, I would advise you to cancel Metronidazole, because most likely all the pimples you have are from this medicine (go from strong to weak). But Betadine does not usually give such bright side effects. Therefore, if you suffer completely unbearable - cancel the pills, and leave the candles and check your condition, if it still will be just as bad, then make a reverse replacement - Betadin is canceled, but we leave the pills. Also go to the doctor, let appoint or nominate antibiotics from other group that there were no cross-section by-effects (it if the reason all the same in Metronidazole).

Gerda, Once you need treatment, then take it, do not be afraid. After not having tried it you will never know it. Moreover, the risk of side effects is reduced if you have ever been lubricated with iodine at least once in your life and you have not had any side effects. And so adverse reactions in shares of percent can be observed at any preparation and what after that to not be treated? In addition, not every person displays a pimple, but one in a thousand treated.

The doctor appointed me these candles from acute vaginitis. I put two candles a day. The vagina is very dry and it is painful to inject candles. I want to advise a wand-doschuchuchku to strengthen the effect of the drug and that would not be a candle. After the introduction of a candle, put a cotton-gauze tamponchik not very deep, so that it does not absorb the entire preparation. Then the drug stays inside, and on the tampon, only a small amount remains. I am worried about the severe dryness, I want to even lubricate something. And the drug is apparently strong because from him I even flew corks from the glands! By results, it helped or not for the present I can not say anything. To the doctor in 11 days.

After a visit to the pool, some discomfort started. First, the values ​​did not give special, and then it turned into a sharp form. To me my doctor has well appointed or nominated suppositories betadin, has told or said that the infection and has told or said that to delay in general it is impossible. I went to the pharmacy quickly bought betadine, there was a pack of 7 suppositories, just 7 days of treatment, and there are another 14 visible to other infections. I read the instructions, one suppository before going to sleep began to use and so for 7 days, plus she wrote me out additional funds, but that's another topic. As a result, after a week, acute discomfort disappeared, and in general it became good all in a couple of days. So I had a positive opinion about the betadine. :)

Women's health at me is very weak, heredity makes itself felt. Since I was 19, I started having problems, I had a cyst, which had to be removed promptly. After the operation, I underwent a long treatment course, and I did not even have to take hormonal preparations that did not have a very positive effect on my health. After recovery from the operation, the problems did not stop, a new cyst began to grow, but not so much, so it was absorbed medically. Because of inflammation, there were pains in the lower abdomen, excretions, my gynecologist appointed me candles Betadin. After a lot of tested candles Betadin differed brown. Candles get dirty, so you should take care of protecting your laundry. In application they are easy, they are easy to take out of the package, but you need to adapt to not break. When you insert a candle, you feel a slight burning sensation, rather because of iodine in the composition. From Betadin my pain symptoms passed for a week, after treatment on examination, the tests were normal. From time to time, these inflammations happen to me all the time, so I no longer turn to the gynecologist every time,and sometimes I arbitrarily accept Betadin, I think that this is a good tool, I personally help candles.

Alexandra, For the first time I hear about a similar side effect. Probably, it's not about Betadine, it's caused by the complication of the postoperative period. It is required to address to the surgeon or the gynecologist who did or made operation or observes you now and more quickly. If swelling is caused by infection, it can be dangerous.

A friend had a miscarriage from these candles. My leukocytes were smeared in a smear, the gynecologist before the operation appointed this drug. On the second day began to heal, on the third day, "provoked" the menstruation. Wild burning, very abundant watery discharge and drawing pain after it. For all life there was no breakdown, day in and day out. I did not take anything else. Indeed, candles should not be burned in such gentle places. And I'm by no means a sissy.

Something felt wrong with herself. Independently began to put the candles Betadin.
On the gasket I realized in the morning, when I saw the yellow traces on the nightie and the bed. Applied chaotically. The first time was a burning sensation and I regarded it as "very good". Hence kills germs, cleanses the mucous membrane. But the most surprising after 2 months of application, and during this time I put about 10-12 candles, my chest stopped hurting.Diffuse-nodular mastopathy gave me heat after menstruation for 6-8 days and until the first day of the next menstruation. Wild pain, dilated breasts and hatred of the one who touches. Then I remembered, one woman told me that she was prescribed iodine preparations for mastopathy. But to connect the two organs in my mind, the chest and thyroid gland, I could only 5 years after talking with her.
Applying iodomarin I did not feel such relief. Maybe it does not suit me or some other reasons, but the fact remains, for me at least. Betadin helped me and helped me cope with two problems. Smears are good, but if I just feel itchy or suddenly starts to swell up my chest - betadin is my best friend!

I was prescribed a doctor by the doctor in connection with a rather serious inflammation of the female part. There were all unpleasant symptoms: burning, dryness, drawing pain, unpleasant discharge.The betadin course managed to eliminate all these troubles, I did not even expect. I did not feel any burning or itching from the use of candles, there was a slight effect of iodine, but the doctor said that this is the norm if there is micro erosion. But with the help of iodine, which is included in the composition, all these wounds can be burned and prevent inflammation from aggravating.

At registration on the account on pregnancy handed over analyzes, the ureaplasmosis has been revealed. The doctor advised to treat while the early term, and in general, to avoid complications during childbirth and not to harm the sore development and health of the baby. Has written to me suppositories Betadin because they one of the few are not counter-indicative in the early terms, do not contain dangerous chemistry and antibiotics. It is a pity, of course, that I did not begin to be examined before pregnancy, but the most important thing is that with the help of betadine from ureaplasmosis I got rid of, I was able to finally relax and enjoy the expectation of the baby.
