Mepitel^® Ag is a gentle wound contact layer – for when you need an antimicrobial action to reduce bioburden in the wound. It's designed for a wide range of exuding wounds such as skin tears, skin abrasions, sutured/surgical wounds, partial thickness burns, partial and full thickness grafts, lacerations, diabetic ulcers, venous ulcers and arterial ulcers.

Mepitel Ag has been shown to inactivate wound relevant pathogens – bacteria and fungi – within four hours and for up to 8 days, as shown in vitro ¹. An international consensus states that an antimicrobial action is indicated to help reduce bioburden in infected wounds ². And acts as an antimicrobial barrier in wounds at high risk of infection or re-infection ².

Mepitel Ag adheres gently with Safetac^® – the original less-pain contact layer with silicone adhesion. So your patients experience less pain during dressing changes ^{3  4  5  6}.
