How to use Prontosan X Wound Gel?

In order to achieve optimal healing results, we recommend that you first thoroughly clean the wound with Prontosan Wound solution and only then apply the gel. For minor and acute wounds, rinsing is sufficient. 

Apply the gel to the wound to form a continuous layer (film) on the wound bed. The layer should extend slightly over healthy skin. Cover the wound with a non-absorbent material to prevent absorption of the gel and drying of the wound. Then fix the bandage with a bandage and plaster. Repeat after 12-48 hours or as directed by your doctor. Prontosan gel X may remain on the wound until the next dressing. Depending on the frequency of dressings, different amounts of Prontosan  gel are applied  to the X wounds . The wound surface should be kept moist to ensure adequate cleaning and decontamination .
