Description
Flaminal hydro
Description
Enzyme alginogel, a new class of wound dressings. Flaminal hydro covers and protects the wound. Enzyme alginogels combine a unique set of physicochemical properties that promote moist healing of wounds of different origins, promote continuous wound debridement and protect the wound edges, together with antimicrobial activity on a broad spectrum of microorganisms, which can significantly slow down the wound healing process.
How to use
1. Before applying Flaminal (hydro or forte) it is recommended to clean the wound and the surrounding area.
2. Cover the entire wound bed with a sufficiently thick layer (e.g. 4-5 mm) of Flaminal hydro or, in case of wounds with moderate or high exudation, with Flaminal forte.
Flaminal (hydro or forte) can be applied in the following ways, for example directly from the tube, directly onto the dressing, with a spatula, with a nozzle or with a syringe.
3. Cover Flaminal (hydro or forte) with a dressing. The choice of dressing should be based on the type of wound.
Lightly to moderately exuding wound: Clear film (polyurethane) or non-adherent dressing secured by a non-adherent bandage, e.g. paraffin gauze.
Moderately to heavily exuding: Non-adherent absorbent dressing secured with a non-adherent bandage or hypoallergenic tape.
4. Check the dressing every day.
The Flaminal dressing (Hydro or Forte) can remain in place as long as the gel structure is intact (1 to 4 days, depending on the amount of exudate).
In case of leaks or insufficient gel, it is necessary to change Flaminal (Hydro and Forte) and apply a new dressing.
5. At each dressing change/wound cleaning:
• clean the wound and surrounding area thoroughly;
• remove all whitish alginate flakes from the wound and leave only those at the wound edge. The flakes prevent the wound edge from weakening and maceration (softening and breaking of the skin due to prolonged exposure to moisture). Maceration slows the wound healing process.
Components
Alginate [total alginate content 3.5% (g/g)], macrogol, hydroxypropylcellulose, enzyme system (glucose oxidase, lactoperoxidase, glucose, guaiacol), potassium sorbate, potassium iodide, buffer, purified water Ph. Eur.
Warnings
Do not use Flaminal (hydro or forte) if you have a known allergic reaction to any of the ingredients.
For external use only.
The first time a patient is treated for wounds that may reach the level of bones and joints or with exposed bones and joints, the patient should be observed for at least 30 minutes after administration of Flaminal (Hydro or Forte).
Some wounds may require additional treatment. Consult a doctor or wound specialist.
Flaminal (Hydro and Forte) can be used on infected wounds only under medical supervision.
The gel has a slight odor caused by alginates. This odor does not affect the healing process. In case of sudden and distinct odor, consult a doctor or wound specialist.
Flaminal (Hydro and Forte) cannot be used on the eyelids or in the eyes. In case of contact with eyes, rinse thoroughly with running water and consult a doctor.
Do not use the product if you notice that it is damaged or opened accidentally before use.
Conservation
Store at room temperature (below 25°C) in a dry place and in the original packaging.
Validity of intact packaging: 24 months.
Validity after opening: 12 months.
Format
Available in 25 and 50 g tubes.
