    Gosh, that takes me back to the 80’s!! Also known as Condys Crystals, a fabulous purple color if I recall.

    I remember wringing out some dressings in this in the acute care setting as a nursing student, but can’t for the life of me remember what!

    Good luck with the research.

    Best Regards,

    Hi,

    One of our physicians is prescribing potassium permanganate as a wound dressing – the staff are keen for a safe guideline to continue using. Is anyone still using and could they offer any assistance?

    My recall of this product was as a debriding solution but if too much applied could do more damage than assistance to the wound bed- again this was way back when I was a “real” nurse working on the wards.
