Hibiwash® is your trusted partner in helping prevent infections, promoting skin’s integrity, and saving time before performing surgical procedures. With 4% Chlorhexidine Gluconate, it provides broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and has been used in hospitals for many decades. This antimicrobial cleanser is highly effective against a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, yeasts, fungi, and viruses.
Unlike other disinfectants, Hibiwash is not absorbed into the skin but binds to it, forming a protective layer that continues killing microorganisms long after application. The unique formula ensures that bodily fluids do not inactivate the product, making it ideal for pre-operative, post-operative, and daily use in healthcare settings.
Regular use of Hibiwash helps prevent Surgical Site Infections (SSIs), with up to 11 in 100 patients at risk of infection within 30 days post-surgery. It has been shown to significantly lower the risk of Staphylococcus aureus infections by up to 60% when combined with nasal antibiotics. Unlike povidone-iodine, Hibiwash is not inactivated by bodily fluids, ensuring lasting efficacy.
Hibiwash’s new formula, enriched with emollients, is gentle enough for frequent use while maintaining powerful antimicrobial properties. Ideal for healthcare professionals and patients alike, it helps reduce the risk of healthcare-associated infections (HCAIs) while preserving the skin’s natural moisture barrier.

The patient washes his whole body in the bath or shower on at least 2 occasions, usually the day before and the day of operation as follows:
The day before operation the patient washes with 25 ml of Hibiwash beginning with the face and working downwards paying particular attention to areas around the nose, axillae, umbilicus, groin and perineum. Rinse the body, then repeat the wash with another 25 ml, this time including the hair. Finally the patient rinses his entire body thoroughly and dries on a clean towel. Repeated the following day. So you can wash bed-confined patients with Hibiwash using a standard bed-bath technique. Conventional disinfection of the operation site will then be performed when the patient is in theatre.
The patient washes his whole body, excluding the operation wound, in the bath or shower usually on the third day after operation using the procedure described above.
There are no special dosage recommendations for either elderly patients or children. The normal adult dose is appropriate unless recommended by the physician.
