The Ethanol IP suggests that this alcohol-based disinfectant is quite effective against even some of the lethal viruses.

Are there any side effects of using Savlon Disinfectant Spray?
When used for personal hygiene and as an antiseptic for the skin (such as cuts and wounds or as an after-shave lotion), it may cause irritation and a stinging sensation on the skin.
What is the difference between an antiseptic and a disinfectant?
Although used interchangeably, antiseptic and disinfectant have different uses. Antiseptics are usually used on the skin to kill microbes. This helps to lower your risk of infections. On the other hand, disinfectant is used on non-living things such as tables, windows, floors, or doors to kill microbes that can attack humans and increase the risk of infections.
Can it be used on the skin?
No, as the name suggests, this spray should only be used to disinfect the surface such as tabletops, doorknobs, curtains, etc. It should never be used on skin or for any personal hygiene. Do not use it on cuts, scratches, and insect bites.
