IV Prep Antiseptic Wipes are single-use, individually packaged pre-saturated wipes that contain an antiseptic solution. They are manufactured by Smith and Nephew, a medical technology company based in the UK. These wipes are used for disinfecting the skin before injection, IV starts, and other medical procedures to reduce the risk of infection. They are specifically designed to provide a quick and easy way to prepare the skin for medical interventions.

IV Prep Antiseptic Wipes contain a solution of isopropyl alcohol and providone-iodine, which work together to effectively clean the skin and kill bacteria. The alcohol helps to remove dirt and oils, while the iodine acts as an antiseptic agent to kill any harmful organisms that may be present on the skin. The wipes also form a protective barrier on the skin, preventing the entry of new bacteria and reducing the risk of infection. This makes them ideal for use before procedures such as IV insertion, where a clean and disinfected surface is essential.

Smith and Nephew IV Prep Antiseptic Wipes are a one-step, topical skin antiseptic wipe that leaves behind a clear barrier film on the skin prior to IV injections around site that cleans and protects the skin from germs and skin damaging adhesives.
