ARZOL® SILVER NITRATE APPLICATORS
Silver Nitrate 75%
Potassium Nitrate 25%
FOR SIMPLIFIED SILVER NITRATE THERAPY
ARZOL SILVER NITRATE APPLICATORS provide a simple and convenient means
of treating
small lesions of the skin and mucous membranes. On contact with living
tissue, silver
nitrate acts as an escharotic. Deep action is avoided by the formation
of a dense surface
film of coagulated albumin.
Silver nitrate is a powerful chemical germicide. Despite
precipitation, it retains substantial
germicidal potency even in the presence of large quantities of
albuminous material,
possibly by gradually redissolving the silver.
SPECIAL PROPERTIES
The combination of silver nitrate with potassium nitrate has been
called TOUGHENED
SILVER NITRATE, also LUNAR CAUSTIC. When the tip of the applicator is
impregnated with
this compound, as in ARZOL, the silver nitrate can be applied quickly
and conveniently
to the precise area to be treated without spread of the escharotic to
adjacent healthy
tissues.
Exposure to light causes the silver in the tip to oxidize and turn
brown in color. This
discoloration does not affect the therapeutic action of the tip and
the oxidized film
readily dissolves when dipped in water.
Moisture has a deteriorating effect on the tip. It may cause it to
break or loosen from
the applicator; therefore the applicators should be kept in a dry
place.
CAUTION: Silver Nitrate is a caustic compound, the improper use of
which may cause
chemical burns. Silver Nitrate mixes with body fluids; this mixture is
caustic and tissue
damage may result if not removed quickly. Contact of Silver Nitrate
applicators on
neonates (as in use on the umbilicus) and on thin delicate skin should
be extremely
short in duration.
INDICATIONS
ON THE SKIN, applica
