Antiseptics

Antiseptics are chemicals that people apply to the skin. They can reduce the number of microorganisms living on the skin, in wounds, and mucous membranes. We offer a wide variety of antiseptics every product have different uses and potential side effects, so be careful what you are choosing. You can ask the Heealth7 team anytime you need an answer about antiseptics.

Healthcare workers often use antiseptics before carrying out medical procedures, such as drawing blood and performing surgery. Antiseptics are also available over the counter for cleaning and treating minor cuts. Some may also be suitable as a substitute for soap.

People can use antiseptics to clean areas of broken skin, intact areas of skin, and mucous membranes.

If you want to treat minor cuts, abrasions, and minor skin infections, then our Betadine® Antiseptic Spray is the number 1 proven-to-work spray in New Zealand. It rapidly kills bacteria and fungi commonly responsible for wound and skin infections. The spray pack makes the application convenient and not messy. Also, for abrasions, insect bites, and many more you can use our HealthE Antiseptic Cream. The gentle formulation helps to fight against infection and prevent re-infection. 

Antiseptics have several potential uses. Some of the most common include:

- preventing infections on the skin, particularly for cuts, scrapes, or minor burns

- dry hand-washing, which healthcare workers may do between different procedures or patients

- cleaning mucous membranes, to treat infections or before using a catheter
