Abstract

Disclosed is a composition for treating sulfuric acid burn, wherein the composition may be used as a topical medication. The composition generally includes isopropyl alcohol or L-valine solution; at least one active therapeutic substance and/or a disinfectant for treating the burn; calcium hydroxide for neutralizing the acid; a humectant and/or a clinging agent for preventing the acid from spreading; an expectorant for signaling the body to clear any irritations caused by the acid; an acid indicator for visually signaling presence of the acid; and fumed silica as a thickening agent for slowing the reaction time of the acid. In a preferred embodiment, and without limitation, the therapeutic substances may include eugenol and thymol, and the disinfectants may include turmeric powder and hydrogen peroxide. Additionally, glycerin and sugar are used as clinging agents to reduce the chemical reaction between the sulfuric acid and surrounding tissue or materials exposed thereto.
