Q.   Can I apply ODZON to broken skin?

ODZON can go on over broken skin (e.g. speedy cuts, gravel rash ) on any part of the body except the eye.

It may even aid the healing process, as one of the active ingredients is Benzalkonium Chloride, a quaternary ammonium disinfectant useful for cleaning skin, mucus membranes and wounds.

Q.   What CAUTIONS exist for ODZON?

Q.   What is the best application process for ODZON and what can I expect?
