Remember Phiso-hex (sp)liquid soap? It used to be used all over the place, I remember seeing it in many doctor offices and surgical prep stations. No longer on the market. Plus,
I seem to recall all that vigorous scrubbing could cause micoabrasions and be subject to infection. I don’t use Purel or those other alcohol based purifiers. Good old soap and water.

Hexachlorophene used to be available in bar soap as well before it got banned as a possible carcinogen. Phisoderm just didn’t cut it like Phisohex. I still see Phisohex at the hospitals.

I had a staph on my face and had to bathe with it and needed a Rx to get it... about 30 years ago.
