Mepilex Ag is a versatile antimicrobial absorbent foam dressing – for when you need an antimicrobial action to reduce bioburden in the wound. This wound dressing is designed for low to medium exuding burns and wounds. Use this dressing to treat leg and foot ulcers, pressure ulcers and partial thickness burns. And it can be used under compression bandaging.

Mepilex Ag may be used on infected wounds as part of a treatment regimen under supervision of a qualified health care professional. This silver foam dressing can inactivate wound relevant pathogens (bacteria and fungi) within 30 minutes, as shown in vitro. An international consensus has concluded that an antimicrobial action is indicated to help reduce bioburden in infected wounds. And acts as an antimicrobial barrier in wounds at high risk of infection or re-infection.

Mepilex Ag adheres gently with Safetac – the original less-pain contact layer with silicone adhesion to lessen the pain during dressing changes.
