How to Apply

Clean the affected area with water or a mild antiseptic wash. Apply a thin layer of Wosan Cream directly to the wound or infected spot. You can cover it with a sterile bandage or leave it open, depending on the injury. Apply 1 to 3 times daily or as directed by your doctor.

Precautions & Safety

External Use Only: Do not ingest or use inside the body. Avoid Eyes: Rinse immediately with water if contact occurs. Thyroid Conditions: If you have thyroid issues, consult a doctor before use, as iodine can be absorbed through the skin.

If a wound is deep, large, or shows signs of severe infection (like spreading redness or pus), please seek medical attention immediately or chat with a Meddylab pharmacist for advice.
