Assembling Supplies

Before you start, make sure you have the right materials and supplies to do the job properly. You will need a toothbrush (or an old toothbrush), a small bowl, cold water, liquid detergent and white vinegar.

Pre-Treating the Stain

Using the small bowl, mix a handful of your liquid detergent with cold water. Soak the toothbrush in the mixture and gently scrub the stained area with the brush using circular motions. Once you are done, rinse the spot with cold water while continuing to rub fabric together.

Using Vinegar

If the stain persists after pre-treating, try using white vinegar. Pour a small amount of vinegar onto the affected area and let it sit for about 10 minutes before scrubbing it gently with the damp toothbrush. Rinse the fabric again with cold water afterwards.

Further Steps

For tougher stains, you may need to use an enzyme-based detergent as they are especially effective at removing organic stains like medicine. Just follow the instructions on the package and wash the blazer as usual. Make sure to air dry the garment afterwards.

Conclusion

Medicine stains can be difficult to remove, but with the right supplies and technique you can easily get rid of them from your blazer. Try the simple steps outlined above and you can make your beloved blazer look good as new.
