Description
Purilon is a gentle hydrogel made from natural ingredients, without any additives. It is used for lesions that require effective and gentle debridement of necrotic tissue, thus promoting faster healing.
The combination of moisturizing and absorbent properties* promotes autolytic debridement and healing of the lesion in a moist environment**.
The applicator ensures controlled, simple, and aseptic application, allowing for one-handed use. The gel can be removed by rinsing.
The viscous consistency of the gel makes it easier to stay in place; even after absorbing exudate and tissue fragments, the gel remains cohesive, preventing leakage and maceration.
Purilon gel hydrates necrotic tissue and absorbs excess exudate, fibrin, and tissue fragments from the lesion.

Composition
Purilon gel consists of purified water, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, and calcium alginate. Purilon is a very gentle gel as it is made from natural ingredients, without any additives.

Usage Instructions
Purilon gel is indicated for dry and fibrinous necrotic lesions, as well as for mixed lesions with necrotic and granulation tissue, such as ulcers of the lower limbs, pressure ulcers, and non-infected diabetic foot ulcers; it can also be used on first and second-degree burns. The gel can be used throughout the healing process to ensure the optimal moist environment. Purilon gel should be used together with a secondary dressing.

Format
Available in 15 g and 25 g.
