TCP Liquid Disinfectant 50ml

TCP Liquid Disinfectant 50 ml is a versatile antiseptic liquid used for minor wound care, skin cleansing, and symptomatic oral relief. It helps cleanse small cuts, grazes, insect bites, and stings, and when appropriately diluted, can be used as a mouthwash or gargle to help soothe sore throat symptoms. Its broad-spectrum antiseptic action makes it a valuable component of home first-aid kits and everyday hygiene care.

Key Benefits

  • Helps cleanse and disinfect minor cuts, grazes, and insect bites

  • Can be diluted as a mouthwash or gargle to help relieve sore throat irritation

  • Supports general first-aid hygiene and surface sanitisation

  • Broad-spectrum antiseptic suitable for common household use

  • Convenient 50 ml bottle ideal for travel or compact first-aid kits

Active Ingredients

  • Halogenated phenols (antiseptic) – approximate concentration ~0.68 % w/v

  • Phenol BP (antiseptic) – approximate concentration ~0.175 % w/v

(Exact concentrations and formulation are specified on the manufacturer’s label.)

Other Ingredients

  • Glycerol

  • Phosphoric acid

  • Colourant (e.g., quinoline yellow)

  • Purified water

  • See the package insert for the complete list of inactive ingredients.

How It Works

TCP contains phenolic antiseptic compounds that help reduce microbes on the skin and, when diluted, in the oral cavity. Phenol and halogenated phenols act by disrupting microbial cell walls and proteins, helping to reduce bacterial load on minor wounds and providing symptomatic relief of sore throat irritation when used as a diluted gargle or mouthwash.

Dosage and Directions for Use

External skin cleansing:

  • Dilute TCP with an equal volume of clean water (or as directed on the package)

  • Apply the diluted solution to the affected area with a clean cotton ball or gauze

  • Allow to air dry before covering with a sterile dressing, if needed

Oral use (gargle/mouthwash):

  • Dilute 1 part TCP to about 5 parts water (or as instructed)

  • Gargle the diluted solution for about 30 seconds, then spit out

  • Do not swallow the solution

Use only as directed on the label or by a healthcare professional.

Target Age Group

  • Adults and older children capable of safely gargling a diluted solution

  • Not recommended for young children who may swallow the solution unless under direct adult supervision

Warnings and Precautions

  • For external use only unless used as a diluted mouthwash/gargle

  • Do not swallow the solution; ingestion of undiluted or large volumes may be harmful

  • Avoid contact with eyes; rinse thoroughly with water if accidental contact occurs

  • Do not use on deep wounds, puncture injuries, or severe burns without medical advice

  • People with known sensitivity to phenol should avoid use

  • Keep out of reach of children

Read the package insert before use.

Possible Side Effects

  • May cause stinging or mild irritation on sensitive skin or mucous membranes

  • Altered taste sensation when used as a mouthwash

  • Rare allergic reactions such as redness, rash, or swelling

  • Discontinue use and seek medical advice if severe irritation or allergic symptoms occur

Storage Instructions

  • Store below 25 °C
