This substance is produced by the chemical industry on a huge scale - about 8.3 million tons per year, and most of it is spent on the production of phenol-formaldehyde and epoxy resins, polycarbonate, nylon, nylon and other synthetic materials.

A relatively small part of the phenol is used just for medical purposes. Thus, the well-known antiseptic drug Oralcept or the anti-inflammatory drug Tantum Verde is created precisely from phenol derivatives.

So, for example, it is still officially used in veterinary medicine for the treatment of fungal varieties of lichen: pityriasis, ringworm and dermatophytosis.
