Aquamira water treatment drops and long dstances

AquaMira drops generate ChlorineDioxide.
Tablets do the same – generate ChlorineDioxide.

I've used tablets for 11 consecutive days, at double strength to reduce the wait time. I had no digestive issues.

Sample of 1. YMMV.

For what it's worth, I used the drops everyday for 3 weeks in the Sierras last summer. Continue to use on every trip in the Sierras and elsewhere with no ill effects. Used the recommended dosage.

Thanks Dylan and Greg. I would think after I use them for those 6 days, I will surely know if I have troubles.

AM is all I ever use.
I use lower dose than label

Used many times — often in some seriously manky water — with no issues.

I've used aquamira exclusively for several long hikes. I wasn't necessarily treating all of my water, but definitely all water for days sometimes. Never had any digestive issues.
Still what I use.

Like many thru-hikers I have used Aquamira drops all summer several times.

Chlorine dioxide (Aquamira) is much safer and effective than iodine which is why it's often used in treating public water supplies. So millions of people use chlorine dioxide long term.

"Chlorine dioxide changes to chlorite ions, small groups of atoms with an electric charge. These ions further break down into chloride ions that leave the body within hours or days through the urine." CDC

I thru-hiked the AT with drops and didn't have any issues. Most of the people I hiked with used the same drops too. I did have some belly issues when I got home, but who knows the cause. The city I live in uses chlorine dioxide during the summer months and in higher doses than what you would use on the trail.
