Here’s a definitive list of 10 essential spirits and detergents every hospital in Kenya should have—plus direct links to where you can get them right now.
An essential disinfectant, Surgical Spirit is used extensively in hospitals for disinfecting skin before injections and minor surgical procedures. It plays a major role in maintaining patient safety by preventing infections at the site of penetration.
This antiseptic solution contains isopropyl alcohol, which kills bacteria on contact. Every hospital in Kenya should keep a constant supply, especially in wards, outpatient clinics, and maternity units.

A cost-effective antiseptic and surface disinfectant, Methylated Spirit is ideal for sanitizing hard surfaces, thermometers, and medical tools. It dries quickly and doesn’t leave residue, making it suitable for busy hospital environments.
Hospitals trust this solution to support quality control mechanisms in disinfection procedures and hygiene protocols.
Used in preoperative skin preparation and wound care, Povidone Iodine is a broad-spectrum antiseptic highly effective against bacteria, viruses, and fungi.
Kenyan hospitals rely on it for both skin cleansing and infection prevention. It’s especially crucial in surgical theatres and emergency care units.
Sodium Hypochlorite 5L (Buy Now)
Sodium Hypochlorite, commonly known as bleach, is a powerful disinfectant used to sanitize surfaces, floors, and even medical equipment. In high-risk departments like ICUs and isolation wards, it’s a frontline defense against microbial contamination.
This hospital-grade bleach solution is critical in meeting quality control mechanisms for disinfection.
Often used in dermatological treatments and as a protective barrier in wound care, Liquid Paraffin is a staple in Kenyan hospital pharmacies and treatment rooms.
It’s particularly useful in burn units and for patients with chronic skin conditions, helping to maintain better healthcare experiences.
Diagnostic accuracy is a pillar of patient safety. Ultrasound Gel ensures clear imaging by eliminating air between the transducer and the skin. Hospitals performing imaging scans, fetal assessments, and other non-invasive diagnostics require consistent availability.
Medocal’s bulk 5L option ensures you’re always stocked for high patient volumes.

In maternity units, surgical wards, and ICUs across Kenya, it remains an essential antiseptic for reducing hospital-acquired infections.
