How do I safely remove the film after surgery?

How long should I wait for the solution to dry?
For safety and effectiveness, you must allow the solution to dry completely. A minimum of 3 minutes on hairless skin is required before applying drapes or using cautery equipment.

The solution is comprised of a highly effective combination of:
- 0.7% Available Iodine (as Povacrylex)

How much solution is included in each individual applicator?
Each unit contains 26 mL of the DuraPrep prep solution, providing sufficient volume for efficient site preparation.
