MyClyns...new personal protection from potentially harmful pathogens

>
Giveaway Closed.
Congratulations Sheila!


10/19~I have editted this and have added information I have receieved after posting this...this editted info will be in gray print towards the bottom.

If you have had any first aid training you have learned how important it is to be cautious when providing care to someone injured or sick.  You can be exposed while caring for this person to many harmful pathogens and put yourself at risk of infection.  I personally keep a pair of gloves in my car in case I run across a person in an accident and need of assistance or caring for someone sick.  I have now found another product out there to help lower your risk of infection when you are possibly exposed.....MyClyns Personal Spray.



With MyClyns Personal Spray a whole new standard of care is available to protect you in the field when and where you need it. MyClyns Personal Spray is a protective spray in an easy-to-use convenient pen-like device that allows you to protect yourself immediately after an exposure while you are still attending to your care recipient.


~MyClyns Personal Spray is a versatile, convenient and readily accessible first response non-aerosol spray providing immediate personal protection from potentially harmful pathogens.


~MyClyns Personal Spray is the only non-alcohol option you can keep in your pocket and apply directly to the affected area, including the face, eyes, mouth, nose and ears.

~Independent laboratory tests show that the solution in MyClyns Personal Spray demonstrates a 99.99% reduction in over 60 potentially dangerous pathogens.

~MyClyns Personal Spray contains a 510(k) medical device solution cleared by the FDA as a wound cleanser (under 21 CFR §880.5090).MyClyns is a one-time use product.
 
MyClyns is currently being used by many rescue and health care personnel.  I think MyClyns is a great product for many "everyday" individuals to keep nearby.  I was given a sample, and am keeping it in my purse for times that I may be exposed due to a person being ill or injured and needing assistance that may leave me exposed.  This is even safe to use on my child, if they are exposed by someone ill. I still keep hand sanitizer handy, as this is not an everyday use type of item. MyClyns is a one time use product. Since the product is being used in a pathogenic exposure situation, they recommend it should be disposed of after use to avoid any cross contamination.  MyClyns should be stored at room temperature. Extreme temperatures, especially freezing, can affect the properties of the product.  So if you decide to get this, keeping it in your vehicle wouldnt be the best place.  If you are like me, you may not need to use this in most situations, so it is nice to know that it has a 2 year shelf life.  So you do not have to be a medical responder or health care professional to have one of these handy.  So like I said before I think this is a great item for the regular you and I to keep handy in emergencies! 

After posting this review I was informed by the distributers that this is now available for consumers.  That the consumer packaging will be a little different.  If you were to use this product when helping somebody at a car accident or something terrible like that,  you wouldn’t want to reuse the product or store it any more. But if you’re at the grocery store and somebody walking in front of you or next to you sneezes and coughs, you can spray your face and your child’s face with 2-3 mists and then put it back in your purse and you’re protected. The only thing different are the directions and the size of the vial (formula is the same). The consumer version is a little bit smaller and the packaging is different. The professional product sells for $19.95 and the consumer is $9.99 and it has 60 mists per vial. 

This was sent at a great time then, as both of my children are sick with fevers right now...so I will most likely be testing this out and will let you know more after I have used this as the "consumer".  What a benefit to have this as a more personal use, or still be able to have it for emergency uses!

*disclosure- I have received one MyClyns but have not used the item for review.  I have read about the product on its website and feel that it is definitly beneficial to keep handy(this is my personal opinion).  I feel that it would be helpful to many people to share this information, that was provided to me from Robin Leedy & Associates. I will be actually reviewing this item, as the need arises for the product.  I will post my personal opinions on its use at that time.
