BD ChloraPrep is a rapid-acting, persistent and broad spectrum antiseptic for a wide range of medical procedures. BD ChloraPrep delivers powerful antimicrobial protection and is rapid-acting. Works by destroying the bacterial cell membrane and precipitating cell contents and alcohol denatures cell proteins. As a result, BD ChloraPrep preoperative skin preparation provides better broad spectrum, immediate, cumulative and residual antibacterial activity compared to traditional iodophors. Compared to the "scrub and paint technique," BD ChloraPrep greatly reduces the amount of time required for patient preoperative skin preparation. • For external use only • Applicators each use a patented wing design to minimize instances where aseptic technique is compromised
