Its active ingredient, chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG), gently bonds to the skin to leave a layer of lasting protection, even after rinsing. Hard on germs, kind on skin! Hibiclens is gentle enough for routine handwashing, even while it begins killing germs on contact. It’s also the #1 dermatologist recommended antibacterial soap. Review: Not a household soap, talk to your doctor before using - 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%) Review: A must have - Used this before knee surgery per the surgeon. Works great. ## Features - Trusted by Healthcare: Hibiclens Antiseptic Skin Cleanser has been a trusted product among many hospitals and care centers for over 40 years as a skin cleanser in pre-operative patient bathing, and for help in reducing the risk of surgical site infections - Protect against germs, even between washes: The average person comes in contact with 300 surfaces every 30 minutes.

Use it as is as direct. **Q: Why does this need a medical license to purchase?** A: As far as I know it does not need a medical license to purchase. **Q: WHY does there need to be red dye in this product?? Everyone knows red dye is cancer causing!!** A: I agree, it is not needed. Best to write the company and demand it's removal. Start a blog to bring awareness to Red Dye 40 being used in Hibiclens but it's use in candy, cereal, sports drinks is much, much worse...You can also write the FDA to end it's approval of RED Dye 40 being used for anything and everything .. **Q: What will be the effect on the anerobic bacteria in my septic system?** A: The anaerobicity is irrelevant. I do not dump this into my septic system, nor any other antiseptic (esp sodium hypochlorite). In order to find if you damaged your septic system, you have to go "too far". It's sort of like being told "do not over-tighten!". What does that even mean? If you use it, dump it in a place that can be exposed to sun and high temps like your driveway, or a sunny part of your yard (but nowhere _near_ a compost pile or garden. People don't take this stuff seriously. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not a household soap, talk to your doctor before using *by S***E on November 23, 2019* It's Hibiclens; I'd generally say overall if you need it, you know what it does and why you need to use it.

Works great. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Must have for people who play close contact sports *by G***R on December 19, 2022* 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 time Cons: - 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). ## Frequently Bought Together - Hibiclens – Antimicrobial and Antiseptic Soap and Skin Cleanser – 1 Gallon – for Home and Hospital – 4% CHG - Hibiclens Antiseptic Antimicrobial Skin Cleanser 4oz Foam Pump --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/6824151-hibiclens-antimicrobial-and-antiseptic-soap-and-skin-cleanser-1-gallon](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/6824151-hibiclens-antimicrobial-and-antiseptic-soap-and-skin-cleanser-1-gallon) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-07-24*
