FAQs

To use Dettol antiseptic liquid 1.3L for bathing, add 1 to 2 capfuls (approx. 15-30ml) to a 10-litre bucket of bathwater. Stir the water until it turns a cloudy white. This dilution is safe for personal hygiene, helps eliminate body-odour-causing germs, and leaves you feeling refreshed.

No, you should never apply undiluted Dettol liquid directly to an open wound or cut. It can cause tissue irritation and delay the healing process. Always dilute 1 capful in 300ml of water before cleaning minor cuts and scratches.

Dettol contains chloroxylenol and essential oils dissolved in alcohol. When mixed with water, the oils and chloroxylenol are no longer soluble, causing them to form microscopic droplets. This is known as the "ouzo effect," which creates the signature milky-white emulsion.

Yes, it is highly effective and safe for sanitising baby clothes. Add 1 capful of Dettol to 1 litre of water during the final rinse cycle to eliminate germs. Ensure the clothes are dried thoroughly in sunlight before use.

Dettol is scientifically formulated to kill up to 100 illness-causing germs, including a wide array of bacteria, fungi, and specific viruses on surfaces. Always follow the exact dilution ratios provided on the packaging for maximum efficacy.

Absolutely not. Dettol is strictly for external use. Ingesting or gargling with it can cause severe gastrointestinal distress, mucosal burns, and systemic toxicity. Use mouthwashes specifically designed for oral care.

Yes, purchasing the large Dettol liquid 1.3 liter bottle is highly economical. Because it is highly concentrated and requires water dilution for every use (bathing, laundry, floor cleaner), a single bottle provides months of household germ protection.

While Dettol is an antibacterial liquid, it is generally too harsh for delicate facial skin and can strip the skin of natural oils, leading to irritation. It is better to use dermatologically formulated acne cleansers.

The primary active ingredient is Chloroxylenol (4.8% w/v). It is a highly effective antiseptic that works by disrupting the cell membranes of bacteria and fungi, causing them to break down and die, thereby preventing infections.

Use with extreme caution. The active ingredient, chloroxylenol, is toxic to cats and dogs. If you use it as a floor cleaner, keep pets out of the room until the floor is completely dry. Never use Dettol to clean pet wounds or pet bowls.
