Chlorhexidine digluconate, an effective antiseptic agent, has a wide variety of gram-negative and gram-positive organisms.

Chlorhexidine digluconate has both bactericidal and bacteriostatic mechanisms of action, the mechanism of action being membrane disruption, not ATPase inactivation as previously thought. It is also useful against fungi and enveloped viruses. Chlorhexidine digluconate is harmful in high concentrations, but is used safely in low concentrations in many products[1,2].
