Ingredients and Materials

Active ingredient: Gentian violet aqueous solution (commonly supplied in concentrations between 0.5% and 1% w/v depending on formulation).
Inactive ingredients: Purified water and formulation excipients such as glycerin or alcohol may be present depending on the batch. Check the product label for exact composition.

How to Use

For topical use only. Clean and dry the affected area before application. Using a cotton swab or applicator, apply a small amount of gentian violet to the lesion once or twice daily, allowing the area to dry between applications. For oral thrush (topical): apply carefully with a clean swab to the affected mucosal areas only. Avoid contact with eyes and open deep wounds. If symptoms do not improve within 7–10 days or if condition worsens, consult a healthcare professional.

Who It’s For

Suitable for adults and older children for targeted topical treatment of fungal skin infections (ringworm, athlete’s foot), superficial skin infections, minor wound antisepsis and topical management of oral thrush. Not recommended for systemic infections. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals, infants, or anyone with severe or widespread skin conditions should seek medical advice before use.

Caution & Storage

For external use only. Gentian violet can permanently stain skin, fabrics and surfaces—wear gloves and protect clothing during application. Avoid contact with eyes, mucous membranes (except targeted topical oral application when advised), and deep or puncture wounds. Discontinue use and seek medical advice if irritation, allergy, or severe reaction occurs. Some animal studies have raised concerns about long-term high-dose exposure; therefore avoid prolonged or widespread use and follow product directions. Keep out of reach of children. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consult a healthcare professional if pregnant or breastfeeding before use.
