Mechanism of Action

Polyvinyl alcohol
As a synthetic resin with hydrophilic properties, it increases the persistence of tear film and therefore lubricates and soothes dry/irritated eyes [L2832].
Povidone
Povidone-iodine is a water-soluble complex that mediates a bactericidal or virucidal action following the gradual liberation of free iodine from the complex at the application site to react with the pathogen [A32988]. Please refer to the drug entry for [DB06812] for the full mechanism of action of the complex.
