Hexamidine is an antiseptic used for disinfecting the skin and mucous membranes, as well as for treating minor bacterial infections. It works by disrupting the bacterial cell membranes, thereby preventing their growth and spread.

The medication is applied topically, as directed by a doctor, usually 1-2 times daily.

Side effects may include local irritation, burning sensation, or, in rare cases, allergic reactions.

Patients should avoid using it on open wounds or large skin areas without medical supervision. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a specialist before use.
