Octenisan Wash Lotion
Product Description
Octenisan Antimicrobial Cleaning Wash Lotion In 150ml & 500ml
Octenisan wash is a specialized, medical-grade antimicrobial cleansing solution clinically indicated for whole-body decolonization, including skin, hair, and scalp. Formulated with a soap-free, non-ionic surfactant base, this octenisan wash lotion targets a broad spectrum of dermal pathogens without causing the cellular dryness or barrier erosion linked to standard antiseptic soaps. It is widely prescribed within secondary clinical environments as a pre-operative skin preparation or as an active countermeasure against multi-drug resistant organisms (MDRO) and Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) skin colonization.
Using octenisan antimicrobial wash balances aggressive pathogen control with physiological skin protection. The liquid formulation contains Allantoin to continuously soothe the skin, reduce irritation, and support the natural lipid mantle of sensitive epidermis. This highly effective octenisan cleaning wash lotion is completely free from artificial coloring agents and perfumes, making it suitable for all skin types, including hypersensitive skin, skin prone to eczema, and pre-surgical patients. To support varying treatment scopes, the wash is available in a standard octenisan body wash 150ml container and an extended-use 500ml bottle designed for complete multi-day clinical decontamination routines.

How to Use & Application Steps:
Step into the shower or bath and thoroughly wet your skin, hair, and scalp with warm water. Ensure all targeted areas are completely damp before application.
Pour a sufficient quantity of undiluted octenisan wash lotion directly onto a clean, damp washcloth or your hands. Rub gently to form a mild lather. Apply it uniformly across the entire body, paying special attention to dense bacterial zones like the armpits, groin, perineum, and under-breast folds. If decolonizing the scalp, apply directly into wet hair like a standard shampoo.
Leave the wash in place for at least 1 minute of continuous contact time. This short window is clinically necessary for the active antimicrobial agent to fully penetrate and decolonize bacterial cell walls.
Rinse the body and hair thoroughly with clean water to remove all traces of lather. Using a fresh, clean towel, pat your skin dry gently—avoid aggressive rubbing to prevent skin irritation
