Alcohol pads, also known as alcohol swabs, are small, disposable pads that are saturated with a solution of 70% isopropyl alcohol and water. They are commonly used for cleaning and disinfecting the skin, as well as for cleaning and sterilizing medical equipment. They are also used as a disinfectant for minor cuts and scrapes and to sterilize injection sites before administering an injection. They can also be used to clean electronic devices and other surfaces.
Alcohol swabs are used to sanitize the injection site before the injection is given to administer a drug. People use alcohol swabs to clean their fingers or surfaces before an injection or when blood from the injection is wiped from their fingers or surfaces.
