For treatment of fungal and bacterial skin infections in animals. When used routinely, helps prevent infection in cuts, scratches, abrasions, and burns. An effective germicidal ointment for cuts and wounds. The treated area can be bandaged or left open.

The Povidone ointment has many practical uses around horses. I would not recommend this ointment to be used in caring of large cuts or wounds, however for the minor cuts and abrasions it is practical, especially because of the lanolin, which will help in restoration of missing hair. One of the most practical uses of this product I find in hoof care in the prevention of bacteria infestation (imbedding). If the horse stands in a stall “rich” in urine, applying this product to the sole of the hoof can help in the prevention of white line decay of the shod hoof. In the same principals it will help to prevent the same during hot summer months, when the bacteria infestation in the hoof is more frequent and often causing hoof abscesses. Hence, this product could help you in the prevention of bacteria related abscess on account of the iodine, despite the small percentage. The lanolin is also a good hoof conditioner; hence this product can be used in general hoof care.
