Here is a CA-MRSA decolonization process to help remove MRSA from your skin and prevent recurrences of the infection. These steps should be taken after the MRSA infection has cleared.
- Wash your hair and body as usual with your normal shampoo and soap.
- Rinse your hair and body thoroughly to remove all shampoo and soap residues, then turn off water.
- Apply chlorhexidine soap (like Hibiclens Antiseptic Soap) to your entire body FROM THE NECK DOWN (to avoid ears and eyes) for five (5) minutes.
- Rinse with water only (no soap), then pat dry with a clean towel.
- Repeat daily for seven (7) days.
