Hibiscrub is not absorbed into the skin, but binds to it to form a protective layer that kills bacteria within one minute, and continues to do so for up to six hours after application . Unlike povidone iodine, Hibiscrub is not inactivated by bodily fluids .HibiScrub is an antiseptic skin cleanser. It’s used widely in hospitals as a pre and post-surgery disinfectant. It contains 4% chlorhexidine gluconate, a bactericide (a substance that kills bacteria) which works against gram-positive and gram-negative organisms. The patient washes his whole body in the bath or shower on at least 2 occasions, usually the day before and the day of operation as follows:

This protective film helps you to avoid agitating the inflamed bumps caused by prurigo nodularis, which reduces your chance of worsening the condition. Because the itchiness caused by these bumps (nodules) is often intense, itching the affected areas is common, which can prevent your skin from healing properly. Because it’s antibacterial, using HibiScrub can prevent infections from developing, and the barrier effect of the cleanser can reduce the damage caused to your skin from the ‘itch-scratch-itch cycle’ caused by the condition. What doses of HibiScrub are there? Whilst every endeavour is made to ensure delivery within the above timescales, no guarantee can be given due circumstances beyond our control and no liability will be accepted for any loss or damage occasioned by delay however caused. The patient washes his whole body, excluding the operation wound, in the bath or shower usually on the third day after operation using the procedure described above.The Vet Store reserves the right to choose a logistics partner of their choice and this may vary from time to time. Currently this may vary between TNT, Hermes and Royal Mail. The antimicrobial effects of chlorhexidine gluconate begin to work immediately. There’s no guarantees about how long HibiScrub will take to work for prurigo nodularis. Managing the condition often requires a two-pronged approach of soothing your skin while reducing your urges to scratch. With each application, use around 25 ml of HibiScrub before you have a shower. Lather the liquid onto your skin, paying particular attention to areas where your skin is most inflamed. Rinse with water. This process can be done a second time. Once you’ve completed a second round of application, wash your skin with water and dry gently with a towel.
