Povidone iodine is non-toxic so if your dog licks it you have nothing to worry about. When used as suggested here, skin staining is minimal (if at all) and will fade away naturally. Itâs non-irritating and almost odorless the way we recommend using it.
Povidone has the molecular formula of (C6H9NO)n. Povidone formulations are widely used in the pharmaceutical industry due to their ability to dissolve in both water and oil solvents. Povidoneâs most common use is in the topical povidone-iodine solution (Aerodine, Betadine), where iodine is released as an antiseptic. Povidone-iodine is often used to prevent surgical incision infections. Povidone has also been used as blood volume expander and as an antibacterial in dental procedures.
