Potassium permanganate is a chemical commonly used for medical and cleaning purposes. In Hong Kong, it is commonly used as a topical medicine to disinfect wounds and kill bacteria. Potassium permanganate exists as purple crystals and can be made into a solution or potion. Pay attention to dilution when using and avoid direct contact with skin or eyes to avoid burns. In medical settings, potassium permanganate can be used to treat superficial skin infections or burns. However, please note that excessive use may cause skin irritation or allergic reactions. When using potassium permanganate, follow your doctor's or pharmacist's advice and strictly control the dosage and frequency of use. If you have any discomfort or concerns, seek medical attention immediately.
Instructions for use: When using potassium permanganate, the drug should be dissolved in an appropriate amount of water to form a lavender solution. This solution can be used to clean wounds or soak the affected area. Wash hands before use and avoid contact with eyes and mouth. If used for soaking, the soaking time should not be too long each time to avoid skin irritation.
Dosing Guidelines: When using potassium permanganate solution in adults, the starting dose is 2-4 grams of drug dissolved per liter of water. For wound cleaning, a stronger solution can be used, but care should be taken not to use too much to avoid burns. Children's doses should be adjusted based on age and weight and are usually lower than adult doses. During use, the patient's reaction should be closely observed. If any discomfort occurs, use should be stopped immediately and seek medical attention. It should be noted that potassium permanganate is a strong oxidant and should avoid contact with flammable substances. It should be stored in a cool and dry place away from children.
POTASSIUM PERMANGANATE is a commonly used disinfectant, but it has some side effects that need to be paid attention to. Excessive use may cause burns to the lips, tongue and skin, causing pain and redness. Contact with eyes may cause burns, stinging and damage to vision. Prolonged exposure or inhalation may cause respiratory problems such as sore throat and difficulty breathing. If you notice any of the above symptoms, you should stop using it immediately, clean the affected area, and see a doctor. Use POTASSIUM PERMANGANATE with caution, avoid contact with eyes and mouth, and pay attention to ventilation.

2. Pregnant women should avoid using potassium permanganate, especially when taken orally or topically on large areas of skin, to avoid adverse effects on the fetus.
