HIBITANE® Skin Cleanser
Chlorhexidine Gluconate

Antibacterial Skin Cleanser

Action And Clinical Pharmacology: Chlorhexidine is effective against a wide range of gram-negative and gram-positive vegetative bacteria, yeasts, dermatophyte fungi and lipophilic viruses. It is inactive against bacterial spores except at elevated temperatures.

Because of its cationic nature, chlorhexidine binds strongly to skin, mucosa and other tissues and is thus very poorly absorbed. No detectable blood levels have been found in man following oral use. Percutaneous absorption, if it occurs at all, is insignificant.

Indications And Clinical Uses: An antiseptic preparation for preoperative surgical hand disinfection, for general antiseptic handwashing, for handwashing procedures in food processing facilities and pre-operative and post-operative skin antisepsis for patients undergoing elective surgery.

Contra-Indications: For persons who have previously shown a hypersensitivity reaction to chlorhexidine. However, such reactions are extremely rare.

Manufacturers' Warnings In Clinical States: For external use only. Keep out of the eyes and avoid contact with brain, meninges, or middle ear. Do not use Hibitane skin cleanser as a pre-operative skin preparation of the periorbital or eyelid areas. If chlorhexidine solutions come into contact with eyes, wash out promptly and thoroughly with water.

In patients with head or spinal injuries or perforated ear drum, the benefit of use in pre-operative preparation should be evaluated against the risk of contact.
