Safetec 62022 Ammonia Towelette 10/BX (Case of 10)

• Model: 62022

The Safetec Ammonia Towelettes 62022 are designed as a rapid, portable inhalant stimulus (similar in purpose to smelling salts) intended for use in situations of lightheadedness, syncope (fainting), or dizziness. Each towelette is pre-saturated with a measured blend of ammonia and alcohol (ethanol), which when opened (by tearing the pouch) releases pungent vapors. The user is instructed to wave or hold the pouch under the nostrils—not to remove the pad from the pouch—so that the inhaled ammonia vapors provoke a strong respiratory reflex, intended to restore alertness and circulation.

Because of its simple and compact format, the 62022 towelette is well suited for first aid kits, athletic trainers’ bags, sports environments, or workplace safety kits where a quick respiratory stimulant might be needed. The 0.7 g pouch size makes it easy to carry, distribute, and deploy without the need for larger equipment. The 15%–30% ammonia/alcohol strength is intended to strike a balance between effectiveness and safety—strong enough to elicit a respiratory response, but controlled to avoid undue irritation under normal use guidelines.

One practical consideration is shelf life: unlike many drug products, Safetec categorizes this as a “non‑OTC” product and states that it does not require expiration dating because ammonia and alcohol, in their formulation and sealed packaging, remain stable over time. That said, users should still ensure pouches are intact and not compromised by leaks or damage. In a first aid scenario, this product offers a low-cost, rapid‑action respiratory stimulant method, though its use should follow proper safety practices (avoid contact with eyes, avoid inhalation in excess, and maintain clear breathing paths) and should not be used as a substitute for medical evaluation when underlying causes (e.g. heart, neurological, or metabolic problems) may be at play.
