Uses & Benefits
Hand hygiene; helps reduce germs on hands when soap and water are not available
How It Works
The high alcohol content rapidly denatures proteins and disrupts lipid membranes of many bacteria and enveloped viruses, leading to germ kill. It acts quickly on contact and evaporates without needing water.

Side Effects
Dryness of skin, mild burning/stinging, skin irritation, redness, allergic rash
Warnings & Precautions

Do not ingest; if swallowed, seek immediate medical help. Keep out of reach of children; supervise use in children. Do not apply on broken/irritated skin. Stop use if severe irritation or allergy occurs.
Drug Interactions
