Antimicrobial compositions containing an antimicrobial agent, such as an octenidine salt, a solubilizer, such as a glycol, and a cidatrope, such as a C-Calcohol, an ether, an amide, an ester, and combinations thereof, where the compositions are substantially free of water and C-Calcohols and methods of making such antimicrobial compositions.

Antimicrobial composition

Adhesive compositions are disclosed that include an octenidine salt, a resin system, a plasticizer, and a cidatrope. The dried adhesive compositions are substantially free of water and C-Calcohols. The adhesive compositions disclosed are formulations that provide rapid and persistent antimicrobial activity and may be useful, for example, in wound dressings, surgical drapes, and medical tapes.
