Mepilex Ag Silver Dressing 10 x 10cm (4" x 4") - Box of 5

🔷 Product Overview

The Mepilex® Ag Silver Dressing 10 x 10 cm (4" x 4") by Mölnlycke is an advanced antimicrobial foam dressing designed for wounds that are at risk of infection or showing early signs of infection. Combining highly absorbent foam technology with sustained silver release, Mepilex Ag helps reduce wound bioburden while creating an optimal moist wound healing environment.

Featuring proprietary Safetac® Technology, the dressing gently adheres to intact skin without sticking to the wound bed, helping minimize pain and trauma during dressing changes. The soft, flexible foam conforms comfortably to body contours while effectively managing wound exudate and helping maintain a moist healing environment.

Suitable for a wide variety of moderately exuding wounds, Mepilex Ag provides antimicrobial protection against a broad range of microorganisms, including many antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
