Chlorhexidine Skin Wipes (alcohol-free)

Single-use wipes soaked in 2% chlorhexidine, an antiseptic that works without alcohol. The alternative for skin that alcohol pads leave sore or dry.

• 2% chlorhexidine
• Alcohol-free
• Single-use

Why you’d want it: If alcohol stings or dries your skin, this cleans the site without it. Not an upgrade on alcohol — a substitute for people who can't use it.

Picking tip: This is the alternative if alcohol irritates your skin, not an upgrade on it. Check the label says chlorhexidine gluconate and alcohol-free — the swab-stick versions sold to clinics are mostly chlorhexidine in 70% alcohol, which defeats the point.
