It is a scrub rather than a soap: worked into wet skin it lifts dirt and grease while the chlorhexidine does the antimicrobial work, and it keeps working for a while after rinsing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMölnlycke’s own indication is human: pre-operative surgical hand disinfection, antiseptic hand washing on the ward, and pre-operative and post-operative skin antisepsis. It is very widely kept in tack rooms and kennels and used on animals on veterinary advice, but that is off-label use and the 500ml bottle should be treated accordingly. The 5 litre container is the one for a yard getting through volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChlorhexidine gluconate cleanser, effective against a broad range of bacteria and yeasts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetergent base, so it lifts grease and debris rather than simply disinfecting a dirty surface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResidual activity — chlorhexidine persists on skin after rinsing, which is why it is used before surgery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA 500ml bottle is the practical size for a house first aid box or a single horse’s kit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe familiar Hibiscrub preparation under Mölnlycke’s current brand name.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDilutes readily in warm water where a diluted wash is what has been advised.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-operative surgical hand disinfection and antiseptic hand washing, which is Mölnlycke’s stated indication.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-operative and post-operative skin antisepsis in people undergoing elective surgery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA first aid kit, a tack room or a kennel, where it is commonly kept.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse on an animal only where a vet has advised it, and at the dilution the vet specifies.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot a shampoo and not a routine grooming wash — for everyday coat washing, a shampoo formulated for the species is the right product.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFollow the instructions for use supplied with the bottle; Mölnlycke direct users to the IFU rather than publishing a method online.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhere a diluted wash has been advised, dilute in warm water to the strength specified rather than applying neat.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWet the area, work the cleanser in, leave it in contact for the time advised, then rinse thoroughly with clean water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRinse until the water runs clear; residue left on skin is what causes most of the dryness people report.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCap the bottle and store it upright, out of reach of children.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChlorhexidine gluconate antimicrobial skin cleanser. 500ml bottle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade by Mölnlycke Health Care.
