Usage:

Actolind® w Solution can be applied directly onto the wound as well as onto the bandage and gauzes.

The entire wound and its surroundings should be thoroughly cleaned with Actolind® w Solution. For optimal wound cleaning, it is recommended to wet the wound consisting of deep and intensively necrotic tissues, for at least 10-15 min. with the help of a fully wetted compress (application of wet dressing). The application can be repeated according to the wound conditions without any time limits. Do not dilute the solution! The cleaned wound can be covered with Actolind® w Gel and bandaged properly.

Thoroughly wet dressings and bandages adhered to the wound surface with Actolind® w Solution, wait 5-10 min. For softening and remove them carefully from wound. Wetting the dressing materials with Actolind® w Solution prevents adhering to the wound surface and facilitates dressing change significantly. In order to maintain a moist wound climate, the dressing can be changed daily, if necessary, several times a day. Actolind® w Solution is compatible with all modern wound dressings.
