Chlorhexidine is a very potent cationic chemoprophylactic agent that has a broad-spectrum of activity against gm+ve and gm-ve bacteria. It is both bacteriostatic and bactericidal depending on its concentration. The bactericidal effect, which is achieved at high concentrations, is due to the binding of the cationic to negatively charged bacterial cell walls and extramicrobial complexes. Bacteriostatic effect is achieved at low concentrations which causes an alteration of bacterial cell osmotic equilibrium and leakage of potassium and phosphorus.
Advice of healthcare professional should be sought if using or have recently used any other drugs. Hypochlorite bleaches may cause brown stains to develop in fabrics which have previously been in contact with preparations containing Chlorhexidine.
Allergic reactions like sudden wheeziness, difficulty in breathing, swelling of the eyelids, face or lips, rash or itching (specially affecting the whole body) may occur.
