Its unique formulation applies quickly and easily while still allowing skin to breathe FiteBac® SkinCare Gel  helps hands exposed to frequent glove use and hand washing combat dryness and remain silky-feeling. It is indicated for use by all individuals, including healthcare personnel, to reduce dryness and promote softness following normal hand-hygiene procedures. FiteBac® SkinCare Gel  is designed for repeated use and allows for easier removal of dirt from hands by reducing the amount of scrubbing necessary.FiteBac™ SkinCare Gel  is available in 1 ounce and 3 ounce containers and in germicidal and non-germicidal formulations. FiteBac® SkinCare Gel was evaluated by 51 consultants in more than 1500 uses. This hand gel received a 96% clinical rating.

Product Features

FiteBac® SkinCare Gel is easy to incorporate into the daily routine of hand hygiene. Following thorough hand washing, a small amount of FiteBac® SkinCare Gel is rubbed into the hands. The silicone-based gel spreads smoothly and leaves a silky coating on the skin. A small number of consultants described the feeling as oily or greasy (which may have been due to over-application), but no residue of the gel was detected on the skin surface. FiteBac® SkinCare Gel is fragrance-free and only a small number of consultants noted a faint odor of the ingredients. The duration of hand softness varied among consultants, but most used it twice a day: first thing in the morning and after lunch. Ninety-four percent of consultants did not note any dryness or irritation after using FiteBac® SkinCare Gel. Eighty three percent of consultants found FiteBac® SkinCare Gel to be better or equivalent to other skin care products. Seventy-seven percent would switch to FiteBac® SkinCare Gel, and 82% would recommend it.

Clinical Tips

  • Only a small (pea-sized) amount is needed.
  • This product is not a replacement for hand washing.
