Interaction
There is a risk of interactions, especially when several disinfectants are applied simultaneously to the same area of skin. This is especially true for mercury-based disinfectants. Corrosive mercury iodide may be formed.
However, disinfectants based on mercury are hardly used any more. If Betaisodona® Spray and lithium are used simultaneously, there is a risk of hypothyroidism, i.e. hypothyroidism. Lithium is mainly used for certain depressive disorders.
There are databases on the Internet which list interactions in detail. Betaisodona® Spray is used superficially. Only a small amount of the active ingredient can normally enter the body at all when used correctly. It is not known that Betaisodona® Spray influences the effect of the pill. The effectiveness of Betaisodona® Spray is also not changed by taking the pill.
Contraindications – When should Betaisodona® Powder Spray not be given?
If you have a known allergy to one of the substances contained in Betaisodona® Spray, it should not be used. Betaisodona® Spray should also not be used for many thyroid diseases. The thyroid gland can react sensitively to the iodine it contains.
The situation is similar with the so-called radio-iodine therapy. Betaisodona® Spray should not be used at least until such a therapy is complete. Another contraindication is the Dermatitits Herpetiformis Duhring. This is a rare skin disease.
Dosage – How often?
Betaisodona® Spray can normally be used several times a day. The area to be treated should be visibly covered by the powder it contains. Over time, the Betaisodona® Spray applied will discolor.
This means that the spray also indicates a loss of effectiveness. After discolouration, a re-dosage is therefore necessary to maintain the desired effectiveness. In case of doubt and unless otherwise directed by a doctor, the package insert should be consulted.
How do I use Betaisodona® Powder Spray correctly?
Betaisodona® Spray should only be applied superficially. Before use, ensure that there are no contraindications to the use of Betaisodona® Spray. Coarse contamination of a wound should be cleaned by rinsing with clean water or, even better, a so-called Ringer’s solution.
Coarser impurities can also be removed by using a sterile instrument such as tweezers. If Betaisodona® Spray is applied to a heavily bleeding wound, its effect may be impaired. Depending on the model, it may be necessary to shake the spray can before use.
The spray can should be held vertically. The area to be treated is sprayed evenly from a distance of about 15 cm. This should produce a visible, reddish-brown layer over the affected area.
If necessary, this layer can also be washed off again. If necessary, a bandage can also be used after the spray has been applied. During application, care should be taken not to inhale the spray mist.
Betaisodona® Spray should not normally be sprayed into the eyes. If in doubt, the package insert should be consulted. In case of uncertainty or serious injury, a doctor should be contacted.
In principle Betaisodona® Spray can be applied directly to a wound to be treated. However, it should be noted that the active ingredient contained in Betaisodona® Spray can be impaired in its effectiveness, particularly in the case of heavily bleeding or festering wounds. In addition, Betaisodona® Spray can dry out the skin and cause fluid retention in the tissue. In case of doubt, particularly severe and heavily bleeding wounds should always be treated by a doctor.
