pharmachologic effect

Elemental iodine has pronounced antimicrobial properties. Elemental iodine preparations are characterized by a pronounced local irritating effect on tissues, and in high concentrations - a cauterizing effect. Local action is due to the ability of elemental iodine to precipitate tissue proteins. Preparations that split off elemental iodine have a much less pronounced irritant effect, and iodides have local irritating properties only in very high concentrations.
