Having recently tried the Savlon Antiseptic Cream, I am genuinely happy with its performance. This highly versatile cream proved handy for preventing infections and cleaning minor injuries and wounds, just as promised. It’s a must-have for every home, considering its efficacy in treating grazes, bites, stings, and minor burns.
Its two active ingredients; Cetrimide and Chlorhexidine Gluconate, deliver a powerful punch to prevent and clean wounds. However, it’s essential to note the presence of cetostearyl alcohol, which could potentially cause local skin reactions. Similarly, Parahydroxybenzoates might trigger allergic reactions in some. So it’s essential to use the cream according to the prescribed directions, and discontinue using it if uncomfortable side effects persist.
Overall, despite a couple of potential side effects, the Savlon Antiseptic Cream is an excellent addition to any first aid kit. Remember, it’s for external use only, and it is always advised to keep it out of reach and sight of children.
