BETADINE® Sore Throat Gargle is a povidone-iodine antiseptic that can help treat the viral, bacterial and fungal infections of the mouth or throat. With a 30-second gargle, BETADINE® helps treat infections that can cause sore throats.
More than 80% of sore throats are caused by viruses. Bacteria are the next most common type of germs that cause sore throats.
Since most sore throats are caused by germs, there are steps that you can take to prevent getting an infection:
• Wash your hands regularly with soap.
• Practice proper hand-and-throat hygiene.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands, as germs can enter your body this way and make you sick.
• Try to keep some distance from those who are ill, as germs can spread.
