15. Can you decontaminate with water or normal saline before or after Diphoterine®? How do you use Diphoterine®?
In INRS studies, it was found that using water or normal saline either before or after Diphoterine® resulted in a worse outcome than if Diphoterine® was used alone. Theoretically, this is because using water or saline first delays use of the active decontamination compound and using water or saline after Diphoterine® washes the active decontamination compound off the skin or out of the eye, preventing it from exerting its full effect.
