What is Bactine?
Bactine is an over-the-counter topical antiseptic and local anesthetic that prevents infection of minor cuts, scrapes, and first-degree burns. Bactine is applied as a spray to the surface of the cut or burn prior to bandaging or dressing.
The active ingredients in Bactine are benzalkonium chloride and lidocaine. Benzalkonium chloride is a powerful antiseptic agent that kills most bacteria and viruses. Lidocaine belongs to a class of drugs called local anesthetics, which numb the tissues by shutting down nerve signals, temporarily relieving pain at the site of the wound or burn.
What are the side effects of Bactine?
Some but not all common side effects of Bactine are primarily site reactions to the active or inactive ingredients and include skin redness, itching, burning, rash, or irritation. Because Bactine is applied to open wounds, the benzalkonium chloride in Bactine can enter the bloodstream and cause rare side effects such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Allergic reactions are rare.
