Advantages: Great all rounder

Disadvantages: smell and sting

TCP is a great all rounder to have in the bathroom cabinet. It is a liquid antiseptic. It comes in a dark brown bottle with a bluey green label. The liquid itself is a clear yellow colour.

TCP has so many uses:

Relief of sore throats-just dilute it and gargle twice a day.

Mouth Ulcers-Dab direct onto ulcer three times a day.

Boils,spots and pimples-dab undiluted four times a day.

Cuts, grazes, bites and stings-Dilute with equal amounts water and apply freely.

I am sure TCP must bring back many memories of child hood for many people. I can remember my Mum putting this very smelly ointment on my legs when I had fallen over. I can also remember the way it stung !

Well I cant comment on use after falling over any more, but it still has the same medical smell. I have used it most recently on my daughters newly pierced ears when she got an infection in them. It cleared them up a treat.

I have also just started to use it to try and calm my sore throat and hopefully kill any bugs that are about. It has a very strong taste but as you only gargle and spit it is ok, especially if it helps sort out the throat. It certainly does calm it down. ( TCP used to do a spray versions which you sprayed down your throat.)

TCP is a great liquid antiseptic which is very effective at soothing pain and fighting infection.

Available in different sizes but the one I got was £2.03 for 100 ml.

Summary: great to have in bathroom cabinet
