FAQs
What is Videne used for?
Videne products are antiseptic skin cleansers for external use. Depending on the specific product, they may be used for antiseptic treatment of wounds, superficial and limited burns and infected skin, or for quick-drying antiseptic skin cleansing when instructed. Always follow the label and product directions.
What’s the difference between Videne antiseptic solution and Videne alcoholic tincture?
The antiseptic solution is intended for external cleansing and first-aid use as directed. The alcoholic tincture is designed to dry quickly and may be used for antiseptic skin cleansing in certain settings; it may sting on broken skin. Choose the format that matches your intended use and the product warnings.
Can I use Videne on broken skin?
Check the specific product guidance before use. Alcohol-based tinctures can cause stinging on broken skin, and some products have additional restrictions. If irritation occurs, stop using and seek advice from a pharmacist or GP.
Who should avoid Videne or seek advice first?
Do not use if you are sensitive to iodine or any ingredients listed on the product page/leaflet. Ask a pharmacist or GP before use if you have thyroid problems, take lithium, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or if the product is for an infant or child.
Is Videne suitable for infants or newborns?
Some Videne products are not suitable for newborns, and others advise speaking to a doctor before use in young infants. Always read the warnings and, if in doubt, ask a pharmacist for guidance before treating a child.
How should I choose between the Videne 500ml options?
Select the solution if you want a standard antiseptic cleanser for first-aid use as directed. Choose the alcoholic tincture if you specifically need a quick-drying antiseptic skin cleanser and it is appropriate for the skin condition and user. If you’re unsure, a pharmacist can help you choose safely.
When should I speak to a pharmacist or GP?
Get advice if symptoms are severe, worsening, spreading, very painful, or not improving, or if you have a medical condition or take regular medicines. For urgent concerns, contact your GP, NHS 111, or emergency services as appropriate.
