Isopropyl Alcohol enhances this action with rapid denaturation of proteins, providing immediate and effective microbial kill.

Directions for Use:

1. Open the individual packet by peeling back the packaging.
2. Remove the swabstick and apply to the targeted skin area.
3. Use a back-and-forth scrubbing motion to prepare the area thoroughly.
4. Allow the solution to dry completely before proceeding with medical procedures.
