Estimating the term…
Compositions and processes for the prophylaxis and therapeutic treatment of wounds, chronic non-healing wounds, burns, disease and other dermal disorders are disclosed. The compositions of the present invention comprise aqueous solutions of a metal chlorite having a concentration of from about 0.002% to about 0.5% by weight of metal chlorite. The process of the present invention comprises treating the dermal disorder with an aqueous solution of from about 0.002% to about 0.5% by weight of a metal chlorite. Wounds, chronic non-healing wounds, burns and other dermal disorders treated in this manner heal more quickly and with reduced scar formation. The antiseptic compositions and processes of the present invention exhibit anticollagenous activity such that the characteristics of the healed skin, such as elasticity and tensile strength, are similar to undamaged skin.
A process for the therapeutic treatment and prophylaxis of wounds, burns, and dermal disorders comprising applying to a wound, burn and/or dermal disorder an aqueous solution consisting essentially of from about 0.002% to about 0.5% by weight of a metal chlorite selected from the group consisting of alkali metal chlorites and alkaline earth metal chlorites.
A process for the therapeutic treatment and prophylaxis of wounds, burns, and dermal disorders comprising applying to a wound, burn and/or dermal disorder an aqueous antiseptic solution consisting essentially of from about 0.002% to about 0.5% by weight of a metal chlorite selected from the group consisting of alkali metal chlorites and alkaline earth metal chlorites, wherein the wound, burn and/or dermal disorder is healed more quickly and results in healed skin having skin characteristics similar to that of undamaged skin and results in little or no scar formation.
