An antiseptic, antimicrobial skin cleanser, HIBICLENS® gently and effectively cleanses skin and superficial wounds and can protect the skin for up to 24 hours1 after the initial application.2 It’s gentle on patient skin and as simple and easy to use as any liquid soap.3
HIBICLENS® contains 4% w/v chlorhexidine gluconate, with inactive ingredients: Fragrance, isopropyl alcohol 4%, purified water, Red 40, and other ingredients, in a mild, sudsing base adjusted to pH 5.0-6.5 for optimal activity and stability as well as compatibility with the normal pH of the skin.
The extensive use of chlorhexidine gluconate for over 30 years outside the United States has produced no evidence of absorption of the compound through intact skin.4 The potential for producing skin reactions is extremely low.3
