Molnlycke Mepore Adhesive Dressing

🔷 Product Overview

The Mepore® Adhesive Dressing is a sterile, self-adhesive absorbent dressing designed for the management of wounds with low to moderate exudate. Combining a soft absorbent wound pad with a gentle adhesive border, Mepore® provides reliable wound protection while supporting patient comfort and mobility.

The dressing features a breathable construction that helps maintain moisture balance and reduce the risk of maceration. Its soft, low-adherent wound contact layer helps minimize trauma during dressing changes, while the water-based, solvent-free adhesive provides secure fixation that is gentle on the skin.

Flexible and conformable, Mepore® adapts comfortably to body contours and natural movement, making it an excellent choice for post-operative wounds, cuts, abrasions, minor traumatic wounds, and other low to moderately exuding wounds.
