Products based on salt of peroxymonosulfuric acid are suitable for treating or/and preventing diseases and other debilitating medical conditions caused by bacterial, eukaryotic, prion, and viral pathogens and by non-pathogenic inflammation. The products may alternatively be based on inorganic halide and an oxidizing agent reactable in water with the inorganic halide to generate hypohalite ions. In addition, the products can be employed in other applications such as commercial and industrial applications.
