What is Hibiscrub?

Hibiscrub is a medical-grade antiseptic skin cleanser that contains the active ingredient chlorhexidine gluconate. It is commonly used to treat skin conditions such as eczema and dermatitis. Hibiscrub is available in the form of a liquid solution and is used for external use only.

What is Hibiscrub used for?

Hibiwash is a strong antiseptic skin cleanser containing chlorhexidine gluconate. It is used for pre- and post-operative hand and skin disinfection, as well as managing or preventing bacterial skin infections when advised by a healthcare professional.

How does Hibiscrub work?

Hibiscrub contains chlorhexidine gluconate, which is a type of antiseptic. When applied to the skin, it binds to the outer layer and kills a wide range of bacteria, fungi, and viruses. This helps to reduce the number of microorganisms on the skin, which in turn reduces the risk of infection and promotes healing. Additionally, Hibiscrub has a residual effect, meaning it continues to protect the skin after it has been rinsed off.

Who is Hibiscrub suitable for?

Hibiscrub is suitable for individuals who are suffering from eczema, dermatitis, or other skin conditions that require antibacterial cleansing. It is important to note that Hibiscrub is not suitable for everyone, and individuals with a known allergy to chlorhexidine gluconate or any other ingredients in the product should not use it. It is always best to consult a doctor or pharmacist before using Hibiscrub, especially if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any underlying health conditions.

How to use Hibiscrub

When using Hibiscrub, it is important to follow the instructions provided by your doctor or pharmacist. Typically, Hibiscrub is used by applying a small amount to the affected area and then lathering with water before rinsing thoroughly. It is important to avoid contact with the eyes, ears, and mouth, and to rinse the skin well after use. Hibiscrub should be used regularly as directed by your doctor, and it is important to continue using it for the full course of treatment, even if your symptoms improve.

Hibiscrub Ingredients

Active Ingredients: The active ingredient in Hibiscrub is Chlorhexidine Gluconate 4% w/v, which is a powerful antiseptic that kills a wide range of microorganisms on the skin.

Other ingredients: The other ingredients in Hibiscrub may include water, lauryl dimethyl amine oxide, and fragrance. It is important to check the product label for a full list of ingredients and to avoid using Hibiscrub if you are allergic to any of them.

Important Eczema & Sensitive Skin Warning:

Hibiwash is an antiseptic wash and is not a routine daily soap substitute or leave-on emollient for eczema. It should only be used for antimicrobial skin cleansing when specifically recommended by a doctor, pharmacist, or clinical team. Avoid regular, routine, or widespread use on dry, broken, or inflamed eczema skin unless directed, as strong antiseptics can dry out the skin and increase irritation.

Important Information

  • Avoid contact with eyes, ears, brain, and meninges. If accidental contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
  • Do not use Hibiscrub if you are allergic to chlorhexidine gluconate or any other ingredients in the product.
  • Consult your doctor or pharmacist before using Hibiscrub if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any underlying health conditions.
  • Keep Hibiscrub out of reach of children and store it at room temperature away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
