TCP is a lightweight antiseptic, manufactured in France by Laboratoires Chemineau in Vouvray and sold in the UK by Omega Pharma.
TCP was introduced in 1918. The brand name comes from its original chemical name, which is trichlorophenylmethyliodosalicyl (not to be confused with trichlorophenol, common fungicide). Trichlorophenylmethyliodosalicyl was replaced as an active ingredient by a mixture of phenol and halogenated phenol in the 1950s. The liquid form of TCP is one of Britain's most famous antiseptic brands, and its peculiar odor of medicinal odor can be identified by many as a generic antiseptic odor.
Omega Pharma acquired TCP rights from Pfizer in 2004.
