Abstract
An antiseptic composition includes an antimicrobial agent that includes molecular iodine (I2), an iodide salt, a hydroxycarboxylic acid present at a concentration of at least 2 wt-%, based on the total weight of the antiseptic composition, and a nonionic surfactant. The antiseptic composition includes no amount of anionic surfactant.

A method of forming a stable an antiseptic composition comprising an iodophor and a hydroxycarboxylic acid, the method comprising:
- providing an antimicrobial agent comprising molecular iodine (I2),
- providing a hydroxycarboxylic acid;
- providing an iodide salt;
- and
- providing a nonionic surfactant;
- and
- mixing the antimicrobial agent, hydroxycarboxylic acid;
- iodide salt, and nonionic surfactant to form a stabilized composition;
