2.3. What active ingredients are used in consumer antiseptics?

Antiseptics are formulated using antimicrobial chemicals known as biocides. Biocide is a general term for a chemical or physical agent that kills all living organisms, both pathogenic and non-pathogenic. Chemical biocides are incorporated into a wide variety of other products in addition to antiseptics, such as surface disinfectants, plastics, fabrics, and paint.

The TFM currently lists only two active ingredients as generally recognized as safe and effective (GRAS/E) for antiseptic and healthcare personnel handwashes: 60-95% alcohol and 5-10% povidone-iodine.

SHBAN for home use contains 5% povidone-iodine as its "active ingredient".
Hospital grade 10% povidone-iodine as its "active ingredient".
