Aspergillus niger, Candida albicans, Trichophyton mentagrophytes , or a combination thereof; or
Trichomoniasis, leishmaniasis, or a combination thereof;
or a combination thereof.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the intravenous solution composition is further combined with a pharmaceutically acceptable intravenous vehicle, wherein the pharmaceutically acceptable intravenous vehicle is water for injection.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the intravenous solution composition is provided to the subject in an amount of about 1 to about 20 ml of the intravenous solution composition once per day for a total of about 4 to about 6 doses; or once every 48 hours for a total of about 4 to about 6 doses; and
wherein the intravenous solution composition is diluted in up to 100 ml of a pharmaceutically acceptable intravenous vehicle.
7. A method of augmenting the immune system of a subject, comprising providing an effective amount of the intravenous solution to a subject in need thereof, the intravenous solution composition comprises
about 0.010% to about 0.040% hypochlorous acid (HOCl);
about 0.05 to about 0.35% in NaCl;
about 0.005% to about 0.020% in OCl; and
water,
wherein all the % are by percentage over the total volume of the intravenous solution, and
wherein the composition has a pH of about 5.2 to about 6.2; and
wherein the intravenous solution composition is provided to the subject in an amount of about 1 to about 20 ml of the intravenous solution composition once per day for a total of about 4 to about 6 doses; or once every 48 hours for a total of about 4 to about 6 doses.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the subject has an infectious disease, is at risk of contracting an infectious disease, is receiving cancer treatment, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, will undergo surgery, or a combination thereof.
9. A method of treating bacterial or fungal contamination, bacterial or fungal infection, or sepsis in a subject, comprising providing an effective amount of the intravenous solution composition to a subject in need thereof, the intravenous solution composition comprises
about 0.010% to about 0.040% hypochlorous acid (HOCl);
about 0.05 to about 0.35% in NaCl;
about 0.005% to about 0.020% in OCl; and
water,
wherein all the % are by percentage over the total volume of the intravenous solution, and
wherein the composition has a pH of about 5.2 to about 6.2; and
wherein the intravenous solution composition is provided to the subject in an amount of about 1 to about 20 ml of the intravenous solution composition once per day for a total of about 4 to about 6 doses; or once every 48 hours for a total of about 4 to about 6 doses.
10. A method for treating cancer in a subject, comprising providing an effective amount of the intravenous solution composition to a subject in need thereof, the intravenous solution composition comprises
about 0.010% to about 0.040% hypochlorous acid (HOCl);
about 0.05 to about 0.35% in NaCl;
about 0.005% to about 0.020% in OCl; and
water,
wherein all the % are by percentage over the total volume of the intravenous solution, and
wherein the composition has a pH of about 5.2 to about 6.2; and
wherein the intravenous solution composition is provided to the subject in an amount of about 1 to about 20 ml of the intravenous solution composition once per day for a total of about 4 to about 6 doses; or once every 48 hours for a total of about 4 to about 6 doses.
