FLAMINAL Forte ALGINATE Gel 15g
FLAMINAL Forte ALGINATE Gel
Flaminal Forte is a new class of wound healing agent, called Enzyme Alginogel.
It consists of an antibacterial enzyme system embedded in hydrated alginates.
Flaminal Forte supports the healing of a wound in a number of ways:
- Keeps the wound clean and moist
- Offers antimicrobial protection
- Safe for the skin and wound tissue
- Reduces wound odour caused by bacteria
- Helps to reduce excessive protease activity (protease = enzyme that breaks down proteins)
- Reduces bacteria released from a biofilm
- Protects the wound border
- These are the prime properties for ensuring rapid wound healing.
Flaminal Forte is indicated for moderately to heavily exuding wounds such as:
- heavily exuding 2nd degree burns (deep, superficial)
- heavily exuding leg ulcers
- exuding pressure sores
- exuding oncology wounds
- pre-operative wound-bed preparation
How to use:
Applying or renewing Flaminal Forte on a wound is easy and painless.
Proceed as follows:
- First clean and rinse the wound
- Dab and dry carefully
- Cover the entire wound bed with a sufficiently thick layer (e.g. 4-5 mm) of Flaminal Forte.
- Cover Flaminal Forte with a non-adhesive dressing.
