Default Iodine / betadine

I cant get Iodine. Usually a local chemist stocks it at about £1 a small bottle. I have tried several chemists & today a horse/animal feed supplier who reckoned its something to do with EU regulations.

Anyway I am now confused! (easily done) I could have had provodine iodine spray/cream from the horsey place. I already have a spray of this (savlon)seem to remember Dan saying only to use it once as it can be very harsh on the skin.

So are they the same ? ( I think not) I am looking for something as a general wound cleaner - not that I have any wounds to clean but I looked after a friends tort for a month who had been attacked by a fox & used up all my supplies, so just to replace them.

thanks for any help
