Medline Marathon No-Sting Liquid Skin Protectant 0.5g - 10 Applications

🔷 Product Overview

The Medline Marathon® No-Sting Liquid Skin Protectant 0.5 g is an advanced cyanoacrylate-based skin protectant designed to provide long-lasting protection against moisture, friction, and adhesive-related skin damage. Forming a durable, breathable barrier directly on the skin, Marathon® helps protect both intact and damaged skin from the effects of urine, wound exudate, sweat, and other bodily fluids that can contribute to skin breakdown and maceration.

Unlike many traditional skin protectants, Marathon® bonds directly to the skin surface through a unique cyanoacrylate polymerization process. When applied, the liquid reacts with moisture on the skin to create a robust protective film that is thicker, stronger, and more durable than many conventional barrier products.

The fast-drying, no-sting formula is designed to remain in place until naturally shed with dead skin cells, providing extended protection without restricting skin breathability. Marathon® is suitable for use on fragile skin, damaged skin, periwound skin, peristomal skin, and areas exposed to moisture and friction.
