  • Title: Allergic contact dermatitis from pyoctanin.
    Author: Schoppelrey HP, Mily H, Agathos M, Breit R.
    Journal: Contact Dermatitis; 1997 Apr; 36(4):221-4. PubMed ID: 9165207.
    Abstract:
    Although pyoctanin is widely used in medicine, there are hardly any reports of contact allergy to it. Most reports of side-effects refer to irritant reactions after topical application. We describe 2 patients who developed pyoctanin contact dermatitis after long-term application on damaged skin. Positive patch test results down to concentrations of 0.0025% and 0.05% aqueous pyoctanin solution, respectively, were found.
