Since 1871, Sturtevant's Veterinary Antiseptic Powder has been the choice of breeders, trainers, and handlers to treat and relieve minor skin irritations on their animals. This effective multipurpose antiseptic powder is specially formulated to promote the healing of damaged tissue. Its non-irritating formula kills harmful bacteria and creates a dry, clean surface enabling healing to take place. Ideal for treating minor cuts and abrasions, sores, burns, and inflammation. Can be used as a powder or mixed with water to form a paste. The paste can be used as a poultice and is excellent for the treatment of heat and inflammation of the legs due to muscle or tendon strains and injury. Effective when used on thrush, saddle sores, hot spots and rashes. When used as a preventative medicine, it helps to keep horses and other pack animals, cattle and other farm animals free of skin irritation problems.
