Kodan Tinktur Forte Barwiony (Isopropyl Alcohol, Orthophenylphenol, 1-Propanol)

The formulation contains isopropyl alcohol, orthophenylphenol and 1‑propanol. These agents disrupt microbial cell membranes, denature proteins and interfere with cell wall synthesis, leading to rapid loss of microbial viability. The combined effect provides broad‑spectrum antimicrobial activity.

The amount applied is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the size of the area to be treated and the clinical situation. No fixed dosing regimen is provided; the prescriber decides the appropriate volume and frequency.

Safety data for use in pregnancy or lactation are limited. Because the product is applied to intact skin in small quantities, systemic exposure is generally low, but it should only be used if clearly needed and after consulting a qualified healthcare provider.

Compared with aqueous chlorhexidine or povidone‑iodine, this tincture relies on alcohol‑based mechanisms, offering rapid antimicrobial action and a broad spectrum. It may cause more transient skin irritation but leaves no residue and evaporates quickly, which can be advantageous for pre‑operative skin preparation.

Store the tincture at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Keep the container tightly closed in its original packaging to prevent evaporation and protect from ignition sources, as the product is flammable.

The product is applied topically to the skin using a sterile swab or gauze pad. The area should be clean and dry before application. Allow the solution to air‑dry; do not cover with occlusive dressings unless directed by a clinician.

Serious risks include chemical burns from prolonged exposure, systemic toxicity if applied to large broken skin areas, and rare severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis. Promptly discontinue use and seek medical attention if any severe reaction occurs.

Individuals with known hypersensitivity to isopropyl alcohol, orthophenylphenol, 1‑propanol or any excipients should avoid the product. It should not be used on extensive open wounds, mucous membranes, the eyes, or on infants and young children without professional guidance.
