The Betadine Ramadan #Don’t Stop campaign invites Indonesians to spread kindness through a series of Betadine Cold and Flu: Betadine Mouthwash and Gargle, Betadine Throat Spray, Betadine Lozenges, and Betadine Nasal Spray.
Ramadan is a month full of blessings where many people compete to do good. This kindness can be started from small things such as reminding to take care of health during fasting so that fasting is more optimal. However, in the month of Ramadan there are often health problems that are common for those who are fasting, namely sore throat.
Usually, sore throats are caused by bacterial or germ infections, lack of drinking, stomach acid disorders, and stimulation of the throat, such as consuming food that is too spicy, too cold, too hot, and so on. To maintain throat and mouth health, one of the things that can be done is to use Povidone-Iodine as first aid for throat disorders.
Expert doctor, dr. Gia Pratama stated, “During fasting, the health of the throat and oral cavity must be paid more attention to by observing the types of food and drinks consumed and maintaining the condition of the normal flora (good bacteria) in the mouth. Contamination of bad bacteria and viruses will occur more easily if our body lacks fluids or is dehydrated which results in a reduced amount of saliva in the mouth. Coupled with the habit of Indonesian people who like to break their fast with fried foods and sweet drinks, it increases the risk of sore throat. In addition, people with stomach acid need to be careful because acid from the stomach can rise which causes irritation to the walls of the esophagus, causing pain when swallowing. Therefore, it is important to maintain the cleanliness of the throat and oral cavity regularly during fasting by gargling with a solution containing Povidone-Iodine which effectively kills germs and bacteria so that it can relieve sore throat, prevent canker sores and eliminate bad breath.
“Gargle or gargling with Povidone-Iodine has been clinically proven to kill germs that cause sore mouth and throat as well as prevent their spread. Gargling can be done with 20 ml of Povidone-iodine solution for 30 seconds. Therefore it is important for the Indonesian people to always have mouthwash containing Povidone-Iodine available and to routinely gargle 2 times a day during fasting, namely at dawn and after breaking the fast to reduce the risk of growth of fungi, bacteria and viruses in the throat and oral cavity” added dr. Gia Primary.
PT Mundipharma Healthcare Indonesia’s Head of Marketing, Anastasia Damayanti also said, “In the framework of World Oral Health Day and the month of Ramadan, Mundipharma launched the #Don’t Stop Providing Kindness With Betadine campaign to educate the Indonesian people about the importance of maintaining a healthy throat, mouth and nose and invite them to continue to do good by providing Betadine products at any time, for themselves and others. family.

Equipped with Povidone – Iodine antiseptic which is proven to be able to reduce the number of germs in the throat and mouth cavities by as much as 99% with high effectiveness and in a short time.”
Betadine Cold & Flu user, Zata Ligouw conveys, “When breaking the fast, my family and I usually break the fast with fried foods. Of course, this can trigger a sore throat and cough, but routinely gargling with Betadine Mouthwash & Gargle is effective in relieving sore throat and cough symptoms.
