Alcohol Pads 3×3 cm 2-ply (Sterile Cleansing Swabs) Overview:
These sterile alcohol pads are small 3 cm × 3 cm swabs made of 2-ply gauze soaked in isopropyl alcohol (typically 70 %) or equivalent. They are ideal for disinfection of skin before injections, cleaning small wounds, device site cleaning, or any minor antiseptic use. In Tanzania and Africa broadly, they are very useful in clinics, health posts, home first aid kits, and for safe injections in rural or mobile settings.

Forms/Strengths
  • Size: 3 cm × 3 cm square.
  • Construction: 2-ply (double layer) gauze or nonwoven material.
  • Alcohol content: typically 70 % isopropyl alcohol (or 70 % ethanol, depending on manufacturer).
  • Packaging: individually wrapped foil sachets; boxes of 50, 100, 200, etc.
Main Uses (with localized benefits)
  • Cleaning skin before injections (e.g. insulin, vaccines) at home or in clinics in Tanzania.
  • Disinfecting minor wounds, cuts, scratches to reduce infection risk.
  • Wiping small surfaces or medical device contact points (thermometers, glucometers).
  • Portable for first aid kits in ambulances, clinics, rural health posts.
Usage Instructions

  • Remove the pad and unfold (if folded).
  • Wipe the intended skin area gently for 5–10 seconds.

  • Dispose used pad in proper waste (sharps / medical waste bin if applicable).
Side Effects / Potential Risks
  • Skin irritation, burning or stinging, especially on broken skin.
  • Dryness or local bleaching of skin with repeated use.

  • Alcohol fumes inhalation if many pads used in closed space.
Interactions / Compatibility
  • Avoid use immediately after applying other topical medications (they may be wiped off).
  • Compatible with most medical devices (thermometers, lancets) as they clean the interface.
  • Do not use near flammable sources when many pads are open (alcohol is flammable).
Warnings / Precautions
  • For external use only; do not ingest.
  • Do not use on large open wounds or deep cuts (use appropriate antiseptics).

Mechanism of Action

The alcohol in the pad (typically 70 %) denatures proteins in bacterial cell membranes and viral coats, disrupting their structure and inactivating them. The swab material provides a medium to transfer the alcohol and mechanically wipe away microorganisms. The 2-ply construction ensures adequate saturation and wiping strength without tearing during use.
