Pre-Injection Swabs – 70% Isopropyl Alcohol

These pre-injection swabs are non-woven pads impregnated with a 70% isopropyl alcohol solution, designed to cleanse and disinfect the skin before an injection. Each swab is individually packed, so you only open what you need, with no waste and no risk of a used pack contaminating the rest. They’re supplied folded in a clear A5 bag for easy, tidy storage.

Key Benefits

• Helps lower skin bioburden and disinfect the injection site before use
• Individually wrapped, so every swab is fresh and untouched until you need it
• Single-use packaging reduces the risk of cross infection between uses
• Made to NHS specification, giving you confidence in a familiar clinical standard
• No waste or unnecessary cost, since each swab is used once and discarded
• Compact and easy to carry, so you’re prepared at home, at work or while travelling

How To Use

1. Tear open the individual sachet just before use
2. Unfold the swab fully to expose the full cleansing area
3. Wipe the injection site firmly with the swab, working outwards from the centre
4. Allow the skin to air dry for a few seconds before injecting
5. Discard the swab after a single use; do not reuse or reseal

For external use only.

Who Is It Suitable For?

FAQs

Are these swabs single-use?

Yes. Each swab is individually wrapped and intended for one use only. Discard the swab after use and open a new one each time.

Can I use these for anything other than injections?

Yes. As well as pre-injection skin cleansing, they’re commonly used to prepare the skin before tattooing.

What concentration of alcohol do they contain?

Each swab is impregnated with a 70% isopropyl alcohol solution.

Why are the swabs individually wrapped rather than in a tub?

Individual wrapping keeps each swab sterile and untouched until use, reducing the risk of cross infection and avoiding waste from swabs drying out.

How should I store them?

Store the swabs in their original A5 clear protective bag, in a cool, dry place, out of reach of children.
