Composition

• Chlorhexidine Gluconate 0.5% w/v

Mechanism of Action

The combination of Chlorhexidine Gluconate and Isopropyl Alcohol provides both immediate and residual antimicrobial action:

• Isopropyl Alcohol 70% rapidly denatures proteins in microbial cells, causing immediate cell death. It acts quickly against bacteria, viruses, and fungi.
