Prevelon Antiseptic Disinfectant Liquid is an antiseptic medication used to cleanse and irrigate dirty wounds. It also helps prevent wound infections. Wounds are injuries that break the skin or tissue, causing damage to the body's surface. They can be caused by cuts, scrapes, burns, or other forms of trauma.
Prevelon Antiseptic Disinfectant Liquid contains cetrimide and chlorhexidine gluconate. Cetrimide disrupts microbial cell membranes, while Chlorhexidine Gluconate binds to and kills bacteria. It effectively cleanses and disinfects wounds, preventing infection-causing microbes from growing. This helps protect cuts, abrasions, and skin breaks from infection.
In some cases, it may cause skin irritation at the application site. This side effect may be temporary and does not require medical attention. However, consult the doctor if the irritation persists or worsens.
Do not use Prevelon Antiseptic Disinfectant Liquid if you are allergic to any of its ingredients. Prevelon Antiseptic Disinfectant Liquid is for external use only; do not swallow Prevelon Antiseptic Disinfectant Liquid. Avoid contact with eyes, nose, and mucous membranes. Rinse with water thoroughly if contact occurs.
