Description
Humco Iodine Antiseptic Tincture 2% Mild USP represents a time-tested, pharmaceutical-grade antiseptic solution that has been trusted for wound care and infection prevention for over a century. This USP-certified tincture contains 2% iodine in a carefully balanced alcohol base, providing potent antimicrobial action against bacteria, viruses, fungi, and spores. The "mild" formulation offers effective antiseptic properties while being gentler on skin than higher concentration iodine solutions. Humco, a respected pharmaceutical manufacturer with decades of experience, ensures consistent quality and potency in every bottle. The distinctive amber-colored solution provides immediate visual confirmation of application and delivers rapid antimicrobial action upon contact with microorganisms. This 1-ounce bottle is perfect for home medicine cabinets, travel first aid kits, and emergency preparedness supplies. The traditional tincture formulation has proven effectiveness in clinical and home settings for treating minor cuts, scrapes, and skin infections. The alcohol base helps the iodine penetrate effectively while also providing additional antiseptic properties. This classic antiseptic remains relevant in modern wound care due to its broad-spectrum activity and resistance to bacterial adaptation.
Suggested Use
Clean affected area thoroughly. Apply small amount directly to wound using cotton swab or sterile gauze. Allow to air dry completely. Apply 1-2 times daily or as directed by healthcare provider. For larger areas, dilute with equal parts water before application.
