Key Features & Benefits:

Potent Antimicrobial Action: The integrated silver (Ag) sulfate in Mepilex Ag provides rapid and sustained antimicrobial activity, effectively reducing bacteria within the dressing and helping to control wound bioburden. This is crucial for infected wounds or those at high risk of infection.
Safetac® Technology for Gentle Application: Experience a comfortable and pain-reducing dressing change. Our patented Safetac® soft silicone layer ensures the dressing adheres gently to the surrounding skin, not to the moist wound bed. This minimizes trauma to the wound and surrounding skin upon removal.
High Exudate Management: Designed to efficiently absorb and retain moderate to heavy exudate, Mepilex Ag helps maintain an optimal moist wound environment, crucial for healing, while reducing the risk of maceration.
Conformable and Versatile: Its soft, conformable foam adapts easily to various wound shapes and body contours, making it ideal for a wide range of wounds including pressure ulcers, leg and foot ulcers, traumatic wounds, and surgical wounds.
Requires Secondary Fixation: Please note that Mepilex Ag is a non-bordered dressing and requires a secondary dressing or retention bandage (like tape or a cohesive bandage) to hold it securely in place. This allows for greater flexibility in application on challenging anatomical sites.
Supports Healing Environment: By managing exudate and infection, Mepilex Ag creates an optimal environment that supports the natural healing process.
