Hibiwash® Skin Cleanser 250ml is your go-to solution for reducing the risk of infection while supporting healthy skin before medical procedures. Containing 4% Chlorhexidine Gluconate, this cleanser offers robust antimicrobial action, trusted for decades in clinical settings. Its effectiveness spans Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, along with yeasts, fungi, and viruses.
Unlike conventional disinfectants, Hibiwash binds to the skin’s surface rather than being absorbed, creating a protective layer that continues working after use. Its unique formula ensures it remains active, even in the presence of bodily fluids, making it ideal for pre- and post-operative care, as well as daily applications in healthcare environments.
Regular usage of Hibiwash aids in preventing Surgical Site Infections (SSIs), which affect up to 11% of patients within 30 days post-surgery. Research shows a combination of Hibiwash and nasal antibiotics can reduce the risk of Staphylococcus aureus infections by up to 60%. Unlike povidone-iodine, Hibiwash remains effective in the presence of bodily fluids, making it a reliable option for infection prevention.
The Hibiwash formula, enhanced with emollients, provides a balance of antimicrobial power and gentle care, ideal for frequent use by healthcare professionals and patients. It helps maintain skin health while lowering the risk of healthcare-associated infections (HCAIs).
Chlorhexidine Gluconate 4% w/v, Isopropyl alcohol, D-glucono-delta-lactone, Lauryl dimethyl amine oxide, Polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene block copolymer, Sodium hydroxide, Glycerol, Macrogol-7 Glycerol Cocoate, Purified water.
Patients should wash their entire body on two separate occasions – typically the day before surgery and the day of the operation. Start with the face, working downwards, paying particular attention to high-risk areas such as the nose, axillae, groin, and umbilicus. Rinse thoroughly, then wash again with 25ml, including the hair this time. Repeat this process the following day before surgery. For bed-bound patients, Hibiwash can be used with the bed-bath technique.
On the third day after surgery, patients should wash their entire body, avoiding the surgical site, using the same method described above.
Children and elderly patients can use the same dosage as adults unless a healthcare provider advises otherwise. Adjustments to the dosage are only necessary if specifically recommended by a medical professional.
