ABSTRACT:
Topical antimicrobial compositions in the form of an aqueous gel or lotion are disclosed; these compositions contain C.sub.5 -C.sub.12 fatty acids and have a pH no greater than about 5. The compositions provide excellent broad-spectrum antimicrobial performance and, in fact, are more effective than similar compositions formulated as creams, ointments, non-aqueous lotions or non-aqueous gels. The method of treating skin disorders of pathogenic origin using these compositions is also disclosed.
