Dettol, India's leading hygiene brand, disputes claims made on Raj Shamani's podcast that applying the antiseptic liquid directly on wounds can be harmful.
The brand states that the claims are completely incorrect, baseless, mischievous, and unscientific.
Dettol clarifies that their antiseptic liquid is approved by government authorities and endorsed by the Indian Medical Association.
Reckitt Benckiser India, the parent company of Dettol, plans to take legal action against the dermatologist who made the claims.
