• Antimicrobial protection over a broad spectrum of bacteria and fungi
• Kills microbes, but is biocompatible with the tissue cells of healing
• Will not dry out a wound or macerate the surrounding skin
• Non-staining
• Not made with natural rubber latex
SilvaSorb® Gel is indicated for use on pressure injuries, partial- and full-thickness wounds, leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, graft wounds and donor sites, first- and second-degree burns, surgical wounds, skin tears, lacerations, and abrasions.
