Zinc Chloride is an ionic salt essential for the synthesis of cholesterol, protein, and fats. Zinc plays an important role in the proper functioning of the immune system. Zinc is required for the enzyme activities necessary for cell division, cell growth, and wound healing as well as the release of vitamin A from the liver. It plays a role in the acuity of the senses of smell and taste and is required to maintain prostate reproductive health and insulin function. Zinc is also involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates. Zinc chloride is administered orally or parenterally as a nutritional supplement.

4.2 Therapeutic Uses

Mesh Heading: Mouthwashes

National Library of Medicine, SIS; ChemIDplus Record for Zinc Chloride (7646-85-7). Available from, as of April 17, 2006: https://chem.sis.nlm.nih.gov/chemidplus/chemidlite.jsp


In low concentrations it is astringent and mildly antibacterial. It is used in vaginal douches to supress trichomonal and hemophilus infections. Although it is used in mouthwashes, contact time is too short, and only astringent and not antibacterial action results.

Osol, A. (ed.). Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences. 16th ed. Easton, Pennsylvania: Mack Publishing Co., 1980., p. 722


MEDICATION (VET): Rare as caustic in fistulas (20% solution), as paste in chemotherapy of cancers, and on ulcers (2-4%). Some may still use it as antiseptic astringent on eye infections (0.1-0.2% solution).

Rossoff, I.S. Handbook of Veterinary Drugs. New York: Springer Publishing Company, 1974., p. 668


Astringent for corn and callus treatment

4.3 Drug Warning

FDA Pregnancy Risk Category: C /RISK CANNOT BE RULED OUT. Adequate, well controlled human studies are lacking, and animal studies have shown risk to the fetus or are lacking as well. There is a chance of fetal harm if the drug is given during pregnancy; but the potential benefits may outweigh the potential risk./ /Zinc supplements; parenteral zinc/

Thomson/Micromedex. Drug Information for the Health Care Professional. Volume 1, Greenwood Village, CO. 2006.


Zinc supplements should be taken at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after meals, since many foods may impair the absorption of zinc. If gastric irritation occurs, then zinc supplements may be taken with meals; however, the zinc will be less bioavailable. /Zinc supplements/

Thomson/Micromedex. Drug Information for the Health Care Professional. Volume 1, Greenwood Village, CO. 2006.


In most cases, parenteral administration is indicated only when oral administration is not acceptable (for example, in nausea, vomiting, preoperative and postoperative conditions) or possible (for example, in malabsorption syndromes or following gastric resection). /Zinc supplements/

Thomson/Micromedex. Drug Information for the Health Care Professional. Volume 1, Greenwood Village, CO. 2006.


Zinc injection that contains benzyl alcohol as a preservative should not be used in newborn and immature infants. The use of benzyl alcohol in neonates has been associated with a fatal toxic syndrome consisting of metabolic acidosis and CNS, respiratory, circulatory, and renal function impairment. /Zinc supplements/

5.3 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

In humans subjected to low doses of (65)zinc chloride and whole-body measurements ... /it was/ estimated absorption to range from 58% to 77% in 5 controls, and from 16% to 42% in 3 patients suffering from acrodermatitis enterohepatica. The whole-body zinc retention was measured for 34 days ... One week after oral tracer dose of 2 ug zinc chloride to mice, the highest concentrations were found in bone tissue followed by liver and kidney.

The whole-body retention at 95 hr after intravascular injection of carrier-free (65)zinc chloride to mature male rats amounted to 78.3% of the dose.

Bingham, E.; Cohrssen, B.; Powell, C.H.; Patty's Toxicology Volumes 1-9 5th ed. John Wiley & Sons. New York, N.Y. (2001)., p. 2:261


In one study, 95 hr after injection of (65)zinc chloride to rats, 20.1% of the dose was recovered in feces and only 0.6% in urine ...

Bingham, E.; Cohrssen, B.; Powell, C.H.; Patty's Toxicology Volumes 1-9 5th ed. John Wiley & Sons. New York, N.Y. (2001)., p. 2:262


In mice given 0.3 ugzinc chloride iv, about 50% of the total dose was recovered in feces within a week. the corresponding value in 1 wk for dogs given 6.5 ug zinc chloride was about 20%. Urinary excretion for the same period was well below 5% of the dose in both species ... Biliary excretion of zinc in rats was found to be 4% over a period of 48 hr following a single iv dose of 0.1 mg (65)zinc chloride.

5.4 Biological Half-Life

For zinc, whole body: 162-500 days; [TDR, p. 1245]

5.5 Mechanism of Action

Hepatocytes were grown in monolayer culture for 22 hr and subsequently treated with zinc chloride (100 uM) for 24 hr which produced a 15-fold increase in metallothionein proteins (MT) concentration. Following pretreatment with zinc chloride, hepatocytes were treated with 20 or 40 uM silver nitrate for 24 hr, and cytotoxicity was then assessed by enzyme leakage and loss of intracellular potassium. The toxicity of silver was significantly less in the zinc-pretreated cells. Furthermore, although zinc pretreatment had no appreciable effect on the hepatocellular uptake of silver, it did alter the subcellular distribution, and silver accumulated more in the cytosol and less in the nuclear, mitochondrial, and microsomal fractions. Silver in the cytosol of control cells was bound primarily to high molecular weight proteins, whereas silver was mainly associated with MT in the zinc-pretreated cells. Zinc-induced MT in rat primary hepatocyte cultures protects against silver-induced cytotoxicity which results from the binding of silver to MT with a concomitant reduction of metal content in critical organelles and proteins.
