ATLANTA, June 17, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Mölnlycke Health Care's HIBICLENS® has been named the #1 Pharmacist Recommended Brand in the Antibacterial Soap category for 2015 - 2016 by Pharmacy Times Magazine and U.S. News and World Report. Top recommended brands were identified through a national survey of 2,696 pharmacists in early 2015.

This survey represents the most comprehensive research of its kind, covering more than 168 product categories that are commonly sought by consumers. Of the over 800,000 recommendations counted, HIBICLENS® garnered 35% of the pharmacists' choice. The next closest competitor only had 22%. This is the third time HIBICLENS has received this award.
