RB Statement: Improper Use of Disinfectants
SLOUGH, England, April 24, 2020 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

Due to recent speculation and social media activity, RB (the makers of Lysol 
and Dettol) has been asked whether internal administration of disinfectants may 
be appropriate for investigation or use as a treatment for coronavirus 
(SARS-CoV-2).

As a global leader in health and hygiene products, we must be clear that under 
no circumstance should our disinfectant products be administered into the human 
body (through injection, ingestion or any other route).  As with all products, 
our disinfectant and hygiene products should only be used as intended and in 
line with usage guidelines. Please read the label and safety information.

We have a responsibility in providing consumers with access to accurate, 
up-to-date information as advised by leading public health experts. For this
