Question

identify antiseptic and disinfectant drug
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Antiseptics are used to kill or eliminate microorganisms and/or inactivate viruses on living tissues (intact or broken skin and mucous membranes).

Ex. ordinary soap;

– a detergent and, if available, a detergent-disinfectant for instruments and a detergent-disinfectant for floors and surfaces;

– a disinfectant: chlorine-releasing compound (e.g. NaDCC);

– an antiseptic: 10% povidone iodine or chlorhexidine.

Disinfectants are used to kill or eliminate microorganisms and/or inactivate viruses on inanimate objects and surfaces (medical devices, instruments, equipment, walls, floors).

Certain products are used both as an antiseptic and as a disinfectant (see specific information for each product).

Ex.

• Alcohol.
• Chlorine and chlorine compounds.
• Formaldehyde.
• Glutaraldehyde.
• Hydrogen peroxide.
• Iodophors.
• Ortho-phthalaldehyde (OPA)
• Peracetic acid.
