Medical and veterinary applications of light to therapeutic compounds include a solution retainer adapted to retain a therapeutic solution against a tissue of a user a fiber optic cable a light source that connects with the fiber optic cable and provides a light of a predetermined wavelength to the fiber optic cable and a light termination on the fiber optic cable that exposes the light to the therapeutic solution. A formulation includes an oxidizer the therapeutic solution having an initial therapeutic effectiveness and a light of a predetermined frequency that that undergoes a synergistic reaction with the oxidizer, thereby enhancing the initial therapeutic effectiveness of the solution.
