Melgisorb® Ag – Highly Absorbent Antimicrobial Alginate Dressing
Melgisorb® Ag is an advanced silver-containing alginate dressing designed for moderate to heavily exuding wounds. Combining high absorbency with sustained antimicrobial action, it helps manage wound fluid while reducing the risk of infection. Its strong fibre structure allows easy removal in one piece, making dressing changes simpler and less traumatic for patients.
Why Choose Melgisorb® Ag?
This dressing is ideal for both shallow and deep wounds where exudate control and infection prevention are critical. The silver component provides antimicrobial protection for up to 14 days, while the alginate and CMC fibres maintain a moist wound environment to support healing. Suitable for use under compression bandages, Melgisorb® Ag offers reliable performance for complex wound care needs.
Key Features & Benefits
- Excellent absorption: Handles heavy exudate effectively for better wound management.
- Sustained antimicrobial effect: Silver provides protection against a broad range of pathogens for up to 14 days.
- High fibre strength: Allows removal in one piece, reducing trauma during dressing changes.
