How to Use
- Only a trained healthcare professional should perform insertion and removal.

- Use aseptic technique: wash hands, don sterile gloves, and apply sterile lubricant.
- Insert catheter gently until urine flows. Inflate balloon with sterile water to the recommended 3 mL volume; do not overinflate.

Who It’s For

Suitable for short‑ or long‑term catheterization as determined by a healthcare professional. Not recommended for patients without clinical indication for Foley catheterization.
Caution & Storage
Caution: Use only under medical supervision. Misuse may cause urinary tract infection, urethral trauma or balloon malfunction. Do not reuse or resterilize. Check expiry date and integrity of packaging before use. Avoid overinflation of the balloon—inflate only to the specified 3 mL. If there is resistance on insertion, stop and seek assistance.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep in original sterile packaging until use. Dispose of after single use in accordance with local medical waste regulations.
