AMINACRINE HYDROCHLORIDE 

Overview: 

Aminacrine Hydrochloride is an antiseptic medicine commonly used on the skin to prevent or treat infections in wounds, cuts, or burns. It works by killing or stopping the growth of bacteria, keeping the injured area clean and helping it heal properly. Sometimes, it is included in mouth or throat treatments to help lower the chance of infection.

How it works:

The action of Aminacrine Hydrochloride is to bind to the DNA and proteins of the bacteria interfering with their growth and multiplication. It prevents the spread of the germs by inhibiting all these critical processes that normally cause the germs to spread leading to the wound or infection site remaining clean and curing faster.

Precautions:

When dealing with Aminacrine Hydrochloride, only apply to the part of the skin that is affected and not to your eyes, mouth, or big open wounds. In case of any allergy like rash or swelling, stop using it and consult your doctor. Unless it is prescribed by a medical practitioner, it should not be used on large or severely damaged areas. Also, do not leave it with children, as it can be a bad idea to swallow it. Use safely and effectively: you should take your doctor or health care provider’s advice, particularly when using it over a prolonged period.
