I’ve been using it for a number of years and recently realised that it’s banned in the US cos it’s deemed to be harmful to the skin. How ah? Should I change my body wash? I always thought Life Buoy was a better alternative to Dettol.

Antibacterial soaps banned in US amid claims they do 'more harm than good'​

Antibacterial soaps were banned from the US market on Friday in a final ruling by the Food and Drug Administration, which said that manufacturers had failed to prove the cleansers were safe or more effective than normal products.

Dr Janet Woodcock, director of the FDA’s center for evaluation and research, said that certain antimicrobial soaps may not actually serve any health benefits at all.


“Consumers may think antibacterial washes are more effective at preventing the spread of germs, but we have no scientific evidence that they are any better than plain soap and water,” she said in a statement. “In fact, some data suggests that antibacterial ingredients may do more harm than good over the long term.”


Manufacturers had failed to show either the safety of “long-term daily use” or that the products were “more effective than plain soap and water in preventing illness and the spread of certain infections”.

did they elaborate on the "more harm" part?

go read the article bah.....

https://www.theguardian.com/science/2016/sep/02/antibacterial-soaps-banned-us-fda
main concern is to the environment and risk of antibiotic resistance in wastewater treatment .

Professor Patrick McNamara, who has published research on antimicrobial soaps, called the ruling “logical” because research shows “there is no added benefit to having these antimicrobial chemicals in soaps”.

He added that triclosan could play a part in driving antibiotic resistance, saying, “after these chemicals are used in our homes they go down the drain to wastewater treatment plants and eventually to the environment where they can select for antibiotic resistance genes”.

“In short, triclosan and triclocarbon present a risk towards propagation of antibiotic resistance,” he said. “Since they do not offer added benefits when washing hands, their use is not worth their environmental risk.

I have using dettol and was glad they were honest during Covid times that while many other brands were misleading about protection against Coronea virus, Dettol said they were still working on it to find out if their soap is effective or not.
Second, u go hospital and see see look look, u can tell obviously which is the trusted brand professionals are using…

Dettol wipes ? and some atas air purifier brand
