Zinc chloride is a mineral that is used pharmaceutically as a disinfection agent and astringent agent. Manufacturing companies produce medications both with zinc chloride as the standalone ingredient, as well as use it as a constituent in combination medications along with other active ingredients, such as ethanol, hyaluronic acid, benzocaine, and levomenthol. Suppliers primarily market zinc chloride medications in the forms of dental solutions as well as a wide range of topical solutions, such as gels, lotions, creams, sprays, and others.
