Overview Povisun Ointment

DermaSeptic ointment provides antiseptic and disinfectant action. It treats and prevents wound and cut infections by eliminating harmful microorganisms and inhibiting their proliferation, thus protecting the affected zone. DermaSeptic is for external application only. Follow your physician's instructions precisely. Ensure the affected area is clean and dry before application. Wash hands thoroughly before and after use. Consistent application maximizes therapeutic benefits. Avoid overuse; it won't hasten healing and may increase side effects. Maintaining cleanliness of the affected area enhances efficacy. Possible side effects include localized skin irritation, redness, or itching. Consult your doctor if these persist. Avoid eye contact; if it occurs, flush with water and seek immediate medical care. Discontinue use and seek immediate medical attention if an allergic reaction develops (symptoms may include rash, lip/throat/face swelling, breathing/swallowing difficulties, dizziness, faintness, or nausea).
