Review: A must have for any home to clear up skin cuts and injuries where everything else failed. - This old time proven anti-fungal medicine works were others fail. I have used it for 50+ years to safely clear up skin cuts that would not close up on its own. Just allow time for it to dry before you put clothing over it or get in a tub as it will stain surfaces. I will never be without it. 3 bottles will last 5+ years. Keep it in a recycled jar with a lid to prevent spilling and gassing off.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how often should you give for oral thrush?**
A: My sons pediatrician said to apply once a day for 3 days and also to apply it to my nipples. This stuff is amazing and works miracles. I am so glad I used this when he had oral thrush,
Many woman give up breast feeding because of the pain and inability to cure it with “conventional” medicine. This is the only thing I will use. Definitely be careful with application as it does stain but my sons purple mouth was gone for the most part within the day and totally gone after 2/3 days.

**Q: For how long is your mouth or skin stained?**
A: DO NOT put this in your mouth. It is for external use only. I'm not sure how long the stain lasts. That would depend upon a lot of variables. Where it's applied or how often the affected area is washed or bathed etc.  The stain was on my dogs foot for about a month until I bathed her.

**Q: Don't see how many ounces this bottle is?**
A: I don't have my bottle in front of me but it probably is 1 or 2 oz.  'bout the size of your thumb.   It will last forever and you can't find it much cheaper than on Amazon!

**Q: My nipples do not stay purple after feeding baby to threat for nipple thrush...am I doing something wrong? I applied quite a bit and let it dry.**
A: if it is coming off completely reapply but if its just not as purple after a feeding then there is no need. I would treat baby with the gentian violet I used a Qtip and painted her mouth and tongue with it cleared up the thrush in 3 days we took nystatin and diffucan  for 3 weeks and it did nothing then we found out baby was allergic to nystatin she had 2nd degree chemical burn on her mouth and private parts

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What's old is new again... wonderful antifungal
*by G***H on July 6, 2018*

I bought these to make the "Purple Ear Wash" (google it) for dogs. Alcohol, Gentian Violet and boric acid powder. Simple to use and very cost effective to make yourself but you can buy it premade, here, on Amazon if you prefer for a much higher price, I have a black Labrador who has had non stop ear infections for her entire life. She has had many vet visits, cleaners and creams, allergy pills, as well as dietary changes with nothing seeming to help for very long and sometimes not at all. It always comes back. Well, now we have moved to a different state that is much more humid, more often than where will lived before and this has exacerbated the problem. In my effort to help her, I recently happened upon a Labrador website where someone posted the recipe for this Purple Ear wash and decided to give it a try, So far, so good. I have been just using cotton balls soaked in the solution to clean out her ears instead of pouring the solution in her ears like the directions stated because I have done that before (with other things) and liquid seems to get trapped in her ears and takes months to disappear. Anyway... some parts of her ears are actually a healthy white color again... which I haven't seen in a long time. I don't expect miracles because she has had this problem for a decade. But I am very hopeful. As a side note, I decided to use this on my long standing on again/off again intertrigo (Ladies with large Ta-Ta's know what I am talking about lol). It has worked better than anything I have ever tried! This combined with Baza Antifungal Cream is a one-two punch. As for staining... I accidently left some of the solution in my marble sink overnight and had two big purple splotches that wouldn't wash off... I sprayed it with a bleach shower mold/mildew cleaner and let it sit for about 5 minutes and it came right off. I've also heard of people using plain rubbing alcohol and even hydrogen peroxide to remove purple stains, just depends on the surface that is stained. My point is although it does stain anything it touches, the stains usually can be removed. The better option is to be careful how you use it to eliminate/minimize staining in the first place. For example, if I ever do decide to pour the solution directly in her ear... this will definitely be done outside on our patio where she can shake her head and let it fly without fear of it staining the entire room LOL
