CREPE EP BANDAGE 10CMX10M FARMABAN

Farmaban Elastic Crepe Bandage: Support and Comfort for Your Pet

The Farmaban EP Crepe Bandage 10cm x 10m is a veterinary product designed to provide compression and support in post-operative treatments, minor injuries, sprains, or edema control in pets. Its durable elasticity and soft composition make it an indispensable tool in veterinary first aid kits, both in clinics and at home.

Composition and Active Ingredients

• Cotton (98%): Natural fiber that provides softness, breathability and skin tolerance.
• Elastane (2%): It provides permanent elasticity, allowing for controlled and stable compression.

Dosage and Instructions for Use

1. Unroll the bandage before applying it.
2. Gently wrap the affected area, starting from the most distal area towards the most proximal (for example, from the leg towards the body).
3. Do not apply excessive pressure. The bandage should hold in place without causing swelling or coldness.
4. Secure with adhesive tape or metal clips.
5. Check every 8-12 hours to ensure there are no signs of constriction.
6. Do not reuse. Discard if it loses elasticity or becomes dirty.

Side Effects and Contraindications

• It may cause irritation on extremely sensitive or broken skin if applied without a protective dressing.
• Do not use on open wounds without prior sterile covering.
• Do not apply in cases where structural immobilization is required (fractures).
• Contraindicated in animals with severe circulatory problems without veterinary supervision.

Benefits for your pet

FAQ

• Can I use this bandage on cats and small animals?
  Yes, its flexibility allows it to adapt to different sizes. Adjust the length according to the area and the size of the animal.
• Is it reusable?
  Reuse is not recommended. Prolonged use reduces elasticity and may compromise effectiveness.

  No. It must be kept dry to preserve its physical properties and prevent infections caused by moisture.
• Is it effective for fractures?
  No. This bandage does not immobilize. For fractures, splints or rigid devices are required under veterinary supervision.
