A method for sterilizing an aqueous antiseptic solution, the method comprising providing a container containing the aqueous antiseptic solution, the aqueous antiseptic solution comprising a bis-(dihydropyridinyl)-decane derivative or a biguanide, heating the aqueous antiseptic solution to a predetermined temperature, maintaining the aqueous antiseptic solution at the predetermined temperature for a predetermined time, and terminating the heating of the aqueous antiseptic solution when the predetermined time expires. The predetermined temperature and the predetermined time are selected such that after terminating the heating, the aqueous antiseptic solution is sterile.
