Ferric subsulfate is a type of iron salt that is commonly used in medical settings for its astringent and hemostatic properties. It is also referred to as ferric subsulfate solution or Monsel's solution.

In medicine, ferric subsulfate is primarily used as a topical agent to help stop bleeding from small cuts, wounds or surgical incisions. It acts by rapidly coagulating blood and forming a temporary barrier that helps to seal the wound and promote healing. It is also effective in decreasing bleeding from mucous membranes, making it useful in procedures involving the nose or throat.

Ferric subsulfate is available in liquid form and may also be mixed with other medications to create a healing gel or cream. It is also commonly used in dentistry for gingival retraction, a technique that helps to create space between the gum and tooth for greater visibility during procedures such as crown placement or filling placement.

In addition to its medical uses, ferric subsulfate may also be used as a color fixative in the textile and paper industries.
