Halazone

Generic Medicine
Indications

Tablets for solution 4 mg are used for making water free from bacteria and germs responsible for waterborne diseases. The mass of each tablet is 100 mg which releases 2 mg of chlorine sufficient to chlorinate 1 liter of water. Dissolve one tablet in one liter of water to be treated and allow 30 minutes time to react. Water will then be ready for potable purposes.

Pharmacology

Halazone's disinfecting activity is mainly due to the hypochlorous acid (HClO) released by hydrolysis of the chlorine-nitrogen bonds when the product is dissolved in water: (R₁)(R₂)NCl + H₂O → HOCl + (R₁)(R₂)NH

The hypochlorous acid is a powerful oxidizer and chlorinating agent that destroys or denatures many organic compounds.

Halazone Tablets have a prominent status among water purification tablets for ensuring hygienic quality of water with their effective bactericidal activity in water. Halazone Tablets are a powerful purifier of drinking water in small quantities.
