ASKINA DRESSIL BORDER DRESSING 7,5X7,5CM 10 units BRAUN

Professional veterinary dressing for wound treatment

The Askina Dressil Border 7,5 x 7,5 cm dressing is a sterile veterinary dressing designed for the protection and effective treatment of wounds in dogs and cats. Thanks to its multi-layer technology and self-adhesive border, this product promotes safe, rapid healing with minimal intervention. It is an indispensable tool in both clinics and at home for post-surgical care or for acute and chronic wounds.

Composition and Active Ingredients

• Material that comes into contact with the wound: soft, perforated polyurethane foam that promotes the absorption of exudate.
• Central absorbent layer: silicone hydrogel with the ability to retain liquids without macerating the surrounding skin.
• Adhesive border: Hypoallergenic medical-grade silicone that provides a long-lasting hold without damaging the skin.
• Outer layer: semipermeable film that allows gas exchange and protects against bacteria and water.

Dosage and Instructions for Use

For topical use only. Before applying the dressing, the wound should be carefully cleaned and dried following veterinary instructions. Then:

1. Remove the adhesive protectors without touching the absorbent central part.
2. Place the dressing over the wound, aligning the center of the dressing with the injury.
3. Press the edges gently to ensure adhesion.
4. Change the dressing every 24-72 hours or according to the level of exudate.

Note: Single-use product. Do not reuse or cut.
