NO! Do not use Bactine on piercings. The following is quoted from the Bactine Website:

Q. Can I use on body piercing? We cannot recommend that Bactine be used for this purpose since body piercings are considered puncture wounds. Consumers should consult their doctor for treatment of such wounds.

Piercings should be cleaned once or twice daily with a sea salt solution that should be no saltier than your tears (~ 1/4 tsp to 8 oz of water). You may also cleanse them gently with a mild, unscented soap in the shower. Please consult a piercer for further aftercare tips.
