"I’ve been using Betadine solution for cuts and scrapes for many years. It’s always been tried and true until yesterday when my son scraped his knee open wound. I bought a new bottle of Betadine from CVS made by Purdue Pharma. I poured it on the wound, dried the area around, and bandaged it up with a large Band-Aid. The next morning at 10 a.m., the wound looked like it was beginning to get infected. Has Betadine always been made by Purdue Pharma? Maybe a bad batch?"

"I had used this product for several years whenever I experienced yeast infections from the medication I was taking. I found it to be very helpful in lessening the irritation. Is it still being sold? I have a need for it again."

"After the surgical procedure on my foot/toe, the Betadine solution was applied to the open wound, then bandaged. Within 10 minutes, it began burning. ASAP, I removed the dressing and cleaned the area with saline. Blistering was evident. Daily wound cleaning, dressing changes, antibacterial ointment applied until healed."

"After the third round of Lucentis injections every five weeks in both eyes for ADM. This Betadine has burnt and road mapped the surface of both eyeballs each and every time when the ophthalmologist injects Lucentis into the eyeballs. Within minutes and through 11 rounds of doping with Paracaine, pain is comparable to a nutmeg grater to both eyeballs. Vicodin for two days barely touches the pain. All three rounds of injection, pain was progressively worse and longer. Now, I am heading to Will's Eye. Betadine needs to be 'patch skin tested' in a small area before ever being used."

"Betadine throat spray by Muni Pharma almost killed me. I used 1 spray in my throat, and then I was gasping for breath. Always have someone around to help you before you start using it. I threw up on the floor, and my throat has been itching severely for the past 30 minutes. Betadine's active ingredient is iodine, which some people are allergic to, so I'm wondering if this is the case."

"I developed a severe skin rash following the use of the wash and powder and needed to seek medical advice. I would NOT recommend these products."

"The best spray ever. Ever since I started using it for the past 5 years, I would have gotten a sore throat 2 times. Cleans up your throat once and for all."

"This spray is useless. It didn't help me at the airport where I bought it, and it didn't help me in Taiwan. The only thing which it relieves is the money from your pocket."

"dysfunctional spray cause of fast drying of the inside stuff after using."
