Hibiclens – Antimicrobial and Antiseptic Soap and Skin Cleanser – 1 Gallon – for Home and Hospital – 4% CHG

Works well with anyone that may have the skin immunity issues hs. Of course it doesn’t make it go away, but when I have break outs it helps keep it really clean so it doesn’t spread.

Price is great when you consider at store you will pay $10.00 for 4oz! I use daily for skin condition. Smells good, but not like a perfume fashionable body wash. Please remember you will need a foaming bottle to use. This is a very thin product and a foaming bottle in shower or at sink is must. Also, may leave pink film on tub, but easily removed. Added plus, using this product daily, I no longer need deodorant!

I have two teenagers that play sports all year. I bought this after multiple doctors visits for skin infections. This works great! I have the kids wash with this after wrestling tournaments or other high contact activities. No more skin infections since we starting using.Pros:- works well to prevent skin infections (and possible complications)- medical grade- this is what hospitals have patients wash with before a major surgery to prevent surgical site infections- saves time and money on doctors visits and filling prescriptions- reduces the need for systemic antibiotics that can have unintended effects (GI problems, yeast infections, antibiotic resistance)- prevents having to sit out of sports because of skin infections and reduces spread to others- this is a huge bottle that will last a long timeCons:- very thin but is not supposed to be used like a regular soap. Dilute with water and apply to areas exposed to contact (avoid eyes, mouth, sensitive parts). Wait a few minutes and wash off. Make sure you read and follow the directions on the bottle.- expensive, but we’ll worth it. Saves a lot of money long term (see pros).

Use along with my hand soap. Has helped keep germs away. Love this item. Will buy more later.

It's Hibiclens; I'd generally say overall if you need it, you know what it does and why you need to use it. Well, one would hope your doctor explain why you be required to use such a powerful antiseptic. Throughout their lives, most people would find it necessary to wash with Hibiclens less than a handful of times. It's most often used by the general public the night before a major operation(although I've been given individually wrapped rags day of the last few years) with the intent of killing as many possible potential sources of infection. Some bacteria may be harmless or helpfull on your skin but deadly if they find their way internally. Postop infections are incredibly severe; they pose a considerable risk to your life and are quite brutal on your psyche. If your doctor tells you to wash with Hibiclens, don't dismiss them, thinking that your antibacterial body is good enough. It's not. However, if this is going to be the limit of your need, there is no reason for you to buy this gallon size jug. They offer more appropriate sizes for preop patients. Hibiclens is also used to sterilize instruments before surgery as well.Essentially, what I am trying to convey is that this is not an antibacterial soap that to be used for everyday handwashing around the house. Regular, nonantibacterial soap works just fine for nearly all circumstances that come up during the day and before meals. (overzealous use of antibacterial hand soap can be dangerous) Hibiclens is a medical product and should only be used by those who have been directed to by their doctor. The blue bottle that listed here as the professional variant is the same thing as the white(i think it's white) bottle. The particular blue is the universal color for Hibiclens in hospitals; that that is why the listing says professional. It happened to be cheaper the day I order it. Both are the same excellent product. If you do need the gallon jug, buy the hand pump as well; it's outrageously priced, but the amount of soap you save pays for it.I have a medical condition that requires me to use Hibiclens all day after everything. The immunosuppressive therapy I'm on leaves me extremely vulnerable to infection. I buy the gallon jugs and refill foaming soap dispensers that I keep by all the sinks. When I use it, it works effectively, killing bacteria thoroughly, when I get lazy, or I feel too unwell and skip refilling the bottles. I'll use regular soap for a week or two, and it almost always leads to another trip to the hospital.Wash your hands with Hipacleanse for 30 seconds, and you have "sanitized" them, killing 99.9% of germs, wash for three minutes, and you have sterilized them, killing 99.99% of bacteria. It may not seem like a lot but think of it as the difference between the person making your sandwich in a restaurant (99.9%), and the person sticking their hands in your body cavity (99.99%)

You'll never have to worry about smelling bad or having body odor with this soap—this is the real deal! I use it every other day in the shower, focusing mainly on my armpits and between my legs. It does dry out my skin a bit, so I follow up with a luxurious soap and finish off with a shower oil to keep everything moisturized.This soap is the first one I apply, and it makes a huge difference. Trust me, it's worth it! and get yourself a pump dispenser it will last longer.

great product

Outstanding value. Very pleased. I'm using a pump delivered with a previous gallon, so I used that. This gallon didn't come with a pump.
