Cipladine Ointment is an anti-septic ointment which is used as a first aid to manage infection in minor wounds, cuts, scrapes, burns and abrasions. It can be used for pre and post operative skin disinfection, while performing wound dressings and during management of decubitus ulcers (pressure sores). It contains povidone iodine as an active ingredient to manage infection of the wound.

Povidone iodine is a broad-spectrum antiseptic which penetrates microbe and oxidizes proteins, nucleotides and fatty acids which causes death of the microbe. It is effective against wide range of infection causing microbes such as bacteria, fungi, protozoa and viruses.

Always use Cipladine Ointment as advised by the doctor. It is for external use only. Clean and dry the affected area before application. Apply a small amount of ointment over the affected area as directed by the doctor. It may be covered with a sterile bandage. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membrane. Do not use Cipladine ointment if you are allergic to any of its components.
