What is Vetedine 10% External Antiseptic and Antifungal Solution used for?
Vetedine 10% is an antiseptic and antifungal solution containing povidone-iodine, designed to effectively disinfect wounds and prevent infections in many animal species: cattle, sheep, horses, pigs, dogs, cats, and poultry. Its bactericidal, fungicidal, cleansing, and deodorizing properties make it an essential tool for animal hygiene and care.
The povidone-iodine in Vetedine 10% gradually releases active iodine, ensuring long-lasting protection against pathogens. Unlike pure iodine, this solution is less irritating, providing gentle yet effective cleansing suitable for sensitive skin and mucous membranes. It delivers deep antisepsis, significantly reducing the risk of secondary infections.
One of Vetedine’s major advantages is its visual effectiveness indicator: as long as the brown-orange color remains on the skin, the germicidal action remains active. When the color fades, it means the solution has been diluted and a new application is needed to ensure optimal protection. This real-time monitoring guarantees maximum disinfection without compromise.
Ideal for the aseptic preparation of wounds and surgical sites, this solution is particularly recommended for surgical procedures, preoperative disinfection, and general animal hygiene in agricultural and domestic settings. It is also used for vulvar and perineal cleansing in preparation for parturition in farm animals.
Vetedine 10% remains effective even in the presence of pus, blood, or necrotic tissue, ensuring optimal antisepsis even under challenging conditions. Its application leaves a protective film on the skin, prolonging its action while preventing reinfection. It is also effective against bacterial and fungal spores, providing enhanced protection against the proliferation of pathogenic microorganisms.
Thanks to its stable formulation, Vetedine 10% provides long-lasting action, which is essential for ensuring sustained protection, particularly in rural areas where animals are exposed to environments conducive to infection. Its cleansing power facilitates the removal of impurities while preparing the area for the application of other treatments if necessary. Its aqueous texture allows for uniform penetration, ensuring consistent contact with all treated tissues.
If you’re looking for a comprehensive and reliable antiseptic, Vetedine 10% is the ideal solution. For deep cleaning and optimal disinfection, complement your care routine with Vetedine Antiseptic and Antifungal ExternalSoap 1L, which combines the same disinfecting properties with a convenient format for daily use.
How do you use this antiseptic and antifungal solution?
Vetedine 10% is for external use only for the antisepsis of the skin and surgical sites. Follow these steps for optimal application:

Vetedine 10% can be applied undiluted by swabbing or irrigation for wound disinfection and antisepsis of at-risk areas.
For mucous membranes, it is preferable to use the diluted solution (1 to 2 tablespoons per liter of warm boiled water), particularly for gynecological hygiene and udder protection during lactation. It is commonly used in animals during the postoperative period to prevent bacterial overgrowth.
