Consult your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse before starting to use Surgical Alcohol.

Do not apply to deep and extensive wounds.

Protect from heat. Highly flammable. Keep the container tightly closed.

Do not use this medicine near an open flame, lit cigarettes, or certain devices (e.g., hair dryers).

Do not come into contact with mucous membranes, it is highly irritating.

Prolonged use may cause irritation and dryness of the skin.

It may cause contact dermatitis.

Avoid contact with the eyes. If accidental contact with the eyes occurs, rinse abundantly with water and consult an ophthalmologist if necessary.

The solution is flammable.

The risk of fire is high when using an ignition source (electrosurgical units, lasers, fiber optic light sources, high-speed drills/burs...) in combination with a combustion source (such as cloths, towels...) and an oxidizing agent (oxygen, air, nitrous oxide...).

To reduce the risk of fire:

  • Do not use electrocautery procedures or other ignition sources until the skin is completely dry.
  • Remove any soaked material, gauzes, or gowns before starting the procedure.
  • Do not use excessive amounts and avoid accumulating the solution in skin folds, under the patient, or soaking sheets or other materials in direct contact with the patient.
  • When applying an occlusive dressing to areas previously exposed to Surgical Alcohol 96º, take special care to ensure there is no excess product before applying the dressing.

• Reduce the supply of oxygen or any other oxidizing agent to the minimum necessary. Those procedures performed on the head, neck, and upper chest (above T5) and the use of an ignition source near an oxidizing agent put the patient at risk of suffering a surgical fire.
