Ethacridine lactate, also known as rivanol, is a basic dyestuff based on acridine and the most effective antiseptic in dyestuffs. The base group has no antibacterial activity before it dissociates into a positive ion. When it dissociates into ethacridine and has a positive charge on its basic nitrogen group, it exerts the greatest antibacterial effect on Gram-positive bacteria. It has a strong effect on various suppurative bacteria. The antibacterial activity is related to the pH of the solution and the dissociation constant of the drug. Rinse with 0.1% to 0.3% aqueous solution or wet with dipping gauze to treat wound infection of skin and mucous membranes. No damage has been found to the tissue at the therapeutic concentration, and the antibacterial effect was slowly shown, but the drug could be firmly adsorbed on the mucosa and the wound surface, and the effect can be maintained for one day. When it is used as organics, the activity is enhanced.
