OK to use right now; will raise your CYA. Has borax ("boron sodium oxide!), so it won't lower your pH as normal trichlor. Has added stabilizer, so watch your CYA levels.Chlorinating granules by AquaChem:
trichloro-s-triazinetrione - 71.8%
boron sodium oxide - 8.0%
other ingredient - enhancer/sunlight protector - 20.2%
(available chlorine 65%)

Bad stuff -- take it back if you can. Non-chlorine ingredients can be VERY irritating in some cases. (There are a variety of shock 'n swim products; not sure which you have!)While at Walmart i also picked up a container of HTH shock 'n Swim
