Description
Smith & Nephew IODOSORB Cadexomer Iodine Wound Gel – 2 Configurations – Sold as 4/bx, 12bx/cs is a cadexomer iodine dressing from Smith & Nephew that releases 0.9% cadexomer iodine as it absorbs exudate and loosens slough from the wound bed. The line runs to 2 configurations, so wound care teams can match the exact format to the wound and the protocol. Each configuration is sold as 4/bx, 12bx/cs with its own item number and price.
- Exudate Absorption – High absorption capacity (absorbs 7 times its own weight in wound fluid) helps to establish moisture balance.
- Department Packaging – Sold as 4/bx, 12bx/cs, so supply rooms can stock at the level each department actually uses.
- Full Configuration Range – All 2 configurations are listed with their own item numbers, so the exact size is chosen on the page.
Cadexomer Iodine Dressing Built for Sloughy, infected and critically colonised wounds

Dual-action composition provides broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity, with desloughing3,4 and high fluid-handling properties, making it effective against chronic wound biofilm in vitro and in vivo. Smart micro-bead technology is loaded with 0.9% elemental iodine to offer sustained release when in contact with wound fluid. Shown to prevent and disrupt mature biofilms typically found in chronic wounds (in vitro and in vivo). Up to 72 hours of broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity (in vitro). That consistency is what wound care teams feel first: the cadexomer iodine dressing sets up fast and works as expected.
