Ethanol is an alcohol-based ingredient primarily used for disinfection and sterilization in dermatological medications. It helps prevent infections by removing bacteria present on wound sites or the skin surface.
Ethanol kills bacteria by disrupting their cell membranes and denaturing proteins. This reduces the microorganisms on the skin surface, thereby lowering the risk of infection.
