Bactigras 10 Pouches (10 X 10cm)

Bactigras Dressing is used to address minor wounds and injuries from ulcers, skin abrasions or minor accidents. It consists of medical-grade cotton fabric presented as a sterile gauge and contains Soft Paraffin BP, with 0.5% w/w Chlorhexidine Acetate BP as the active ingredient responsible for its protective properties. Chlorhexidine is a powerful antimicrobial active agent that works against various kinds of bacteria. However, it is inactive against fungi, viruses and spores.

• The base is made of soft paraffin.
• It is packaged as a sterile open-weave gauze for easy and hassle-free use.
• Chlorhexidine acts as a topical antibacterial against most gram-positive and gram-negative pathogens.
• Antiseptic components ensure a reduced risk of infection.
• Available in a wide range of sizes to suit specific needs.
• Soothing and low-adherent allow maximum comfort.

• Medical grade cotton weave

• It soothes and protects the wound and allows it to breathe instead of keeping it compressed and worsening it.
• The gauze’s open-weave nature helps maintain the shape and resists fraying while being cut to fit the wound.
• The dressing can resist infection from a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Also, it is pretty effective against most stubborn pathogens.
• Any amount of fluid oozing from the wounds does not affect the antiseptic efficacy of chlorhexidine.

• Clean the wound with a sterile solution, preferably normal saline.
• Apply a layer of Bactigras Dressing.
• Cover it with an absorbent pad.
• Now, tape the pad or bandage it to hold it in place.

• The product needs to be stored in a cool, dry place.
• Do not use the dressing to cover more than 10% of the body area.
• People allergic to Chlorhexidine should refrain from using the product.
• Avoid contact with the eyes and ears.
• Do not use the dressing along with any oxidising wound cleaning agents, soap or iodine-based solutions.
• In case of continued medical discomfort, seek professional help.

Q 1. How frequently can Bactigras dressing be changed?
Ans. The frequency of change in dressing depends entirely on the nature and intensity of the wound that is being addressed.

Q 2. Can I use Bactigras dressing for sprains and internal injuries?
Ans. Bactigras is an additive, topical, medicated dressing for minor, open wounds as the components help protect them from bacterial infections. They do not serve any particular purpose in internal injuries as sprains and other non-invasive injuries.

Q 3. Can I use Bactigras dressing for burns and deep cuts?
Ans. The Bactigras dressing only contains a small amount of medicated components and is useful for minor injuries. Consult your doctor for expert advice on burn wounds.
