Merbromin

Organomercuric antiseptic for external use on minor cuts

Merbromin (marketed as Mercurochrome, Merbromine, Mercurocol, Sodium mercurescein, Asceptichrome, Supercrome, Brocasept and Cinfacromin) is an organomercuric disodium salt compound used as a topical antiseptic for minor cuts and scrapes and as a biological dye. While readily available in most countries, it is no longer sold in much of the West, including Australia, Switzerland, Brazil, France, Iran, Germany, Denmark, or the United States, due to its mercury content.
