HARSH ON PATHOGENS, GENTLE ON YOU - Certainty SmartShield's innovative extended-release formula delivers potent medication in a petrolatum-based ointment, similar in texture to petroleum jelly. It's more effective than liquid antiseptics like iodine or alcohol at stopping pathogens, but extremely gentle, even on open skin wounds or nasal passages. A little dab starts working in seconds, with no irritation or damage to healthy cells or skin tissue. FOR USE ON THE SKIN - As a wound ointment, Certainty SmartShield promotes healing while providing long-lasting antimicrobial protection. It acts as a barrier for wounds to protect against infection while promoting healing. This non-irritating, hypoallergenic formula has a long track record of safety and efficacy, and is indicated for use in adults and children age 2 years and older, making it a first aid kit essential. FOR USE INSIDE THE NOSE - Nasal passages are a common entry point for airborne pathogens. Certainty SmartShield nasal sanitizer helps trap and eradicate pathogens that enter the nose, reducing the risk of getting or spreading an infection. Apply 2-3 times a day to reduce the risk of airborne pathogens multiplying in your nasal passages, helping protect you and those around you from getting or spreading an infection. NASAL DECOLONIZER - Many viruses gain their foothold by infecting certain nasal cells[2]. Infected nasal cells are also a likely source of viral shedding and spread[3]. Nasal decolonization with topical antiseptics is a common infection control practice in hospitals. One application of Certainty SmartShield's gentle, petrolatum-based nasal antiseptic ointment has been shown to help prevent pathogen replication in the nose instantly and continuously for 6-8 hours or longer. DOUBLE-DUTY OINTMENT - Certainty Smart Shield provides instant and continuous protection against a broad spectrum of infectious pathogens. The double-duty, prescription-strength formula, listed in the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) DAILYMED database[1], is now available and indicated for use as both a nasal decolonizer and healing wound dressing.
