Overview Povaril Ointment
Povaril Ointment serves as both an antiseptic and disinfectant. Its purpose is to treat and prevent wound and cut infections by eliminating harmful microorganisms and inhibiting their proliferation. Apply only externally, following your physician's instructions precisely. Ensure the affected area is clean and dry before application. Always wash your hands diligently before and after use for optimal effectiveness. Consistent use is key to maximizing benefits; avoid overuse, as this won't accelerate healing and may increase side effects. Maintaining cleanliness of the affected area enhances the ointment's efficacy. Potential side effects include localized skin irritation, redness, or itching. Consult your doctor if these persist. Avoid eye contact; should this occur, immediately flush with water and seek medical advice. Discontinue use and seek immediate medical attention if an allergic reaction develops (symptoms may include rash, facial or throat swelling, breathing difficulties, dizziness, fainting, or nausea).
