Alcohol Pad

Alcohol Pad

Alcohol pads, small single-use wipes soaked in 70 percent isopropyl alcohol for cleaning skin before injections.

Typical use

A pad is wiped over the skin before a needle stick, a blood sample or a finger prick, and is used to clean small surfaces such as vial tops. Each pad is sealed in its own foil sachet so it stays moist and clean until opened.

Before you order

Confirm the alcohol concentration and type printed on the sachet, the pad size and the pack count per box. Check that sachets are properly sealed to avoid drying out, and ask about the expiry date.
