Description

Product Description ------------------- OPSITE Plus is an adhesive film dressing with an absorbent pad that is indicated for use on a range of wound types. Ingredients ----------- As OPSITE Plus Adhesive Film Dressing is a medical product rather than a consumable with ingredients, it doesn't contain traditional "ingredients" like a food or cosmetic product might. Instead, it's made up of materials designed to provide a sterile and protective covering for wounds. These materials typically include: 1. Polyurethane film: Forms the transparent, waterproof outer layer. 2. Adhesive: Bonds the dressing securely to the skin without causing irritation. 3. Backing material: Provides support to the adhesive film and protects the sterile dressing before application. While it doesn't have a list of ingredients in the conventional sense, OPSITE Plus is manufactured under strict quality control standards to ensure safety and efficacy in wound care.
