Cipladine Powder is used for cipladine Gargle is used to prevent infections.
Medically reviewed by Dr. Balaji Krishnan, MBBS · Updated September 2026
Cipladine Powder contains Povidone Iodine (2%w/v). It belongs to the Antiseptic and disinfectant class of medicines.
Cipladine Gargle is used to prevent infections.
Cipladine Gargle is an antiseptic. It slowly releases iodine which kills or prevents the growth of infectious microorganisms in the mouth.
Empty the contents into a glass of water, stir until dissolved and drink it straight away. Do not keep a made-up dose for later. Follow the dose and the duration written on your prescription.
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
Take the missed dose of Cipladine as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed one and carry on with the usual schedule. Do not take two doses together to make up for a missed dose.
An overdose of this medicine is unlikely from skin use, but swallowing an antiseptic is dangerous and needs immediate medical attention. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
Most side effects of Cipladine are mild and settle as the body adjusts. Reported side effects include:
Stop the medicine and seek help immediately for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

|---|---|

For external use only. Keep away from the eyes and the inside of the mouth and nose unless the product is made for that purpose. Do not use a strong antiseptic repeatedly on an open wound — clean running water and soap around the edges are usually better, and harsh antiseptics slow healing. See a doctor for a deep or dirty wound, an animal bite, a wound that will not stop bleeding, or one that becomes red, swollen, warm or discharges. Check that your tetanus cover is current after any dirty or penetrating wound.
Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Not for use on large burns or deep wounds without medical advice.
No significant interactions are expected.
Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight. Keep out of the reach of children.
Clean the wound under running water first, then apply. Cover a clean wound with a sterile dressing and change it if it becomes wet or dirty.
