Epiglu Tissue Adhesive Sachet 0.3ml 1 Dose
Epiglu Tissue Adhesive Sachet 0.3ml — Single‑Dose Skin Glue for Wound Closure
Epiglu Tissue Adhesive 0.3ml is a sterile, single‑dose cyanoacrylate skin adhesive designed for rapid, suture‑free closure of superficial lacerations and minor surgical incisions. Ideal for first aid kits, emergency care and outpatient wound management, Epiglu forms a protective, waterproof film that secures wound edges and supports natural healing while reducing procedure time and the need for sutures.
Key Benefits
- Fast wound closure: rapid polymerisation creates a strong skin bond within seconds.
- Suture alternative: reduces the need for stitches in suitable superficial wounds.
- Single‑use sterile sachet (0.3ml): convenient for first aid and emergency care.
- Water‑resistant film: protects wounds from contaminants and allows normal activities.
- Minimally invasive: less scarring and lower procedure time compared with sutures for eligible wounds.
Ingredients and Materials
Active ingredient: n‑butyl cyanoacrylate (medical‑grade) — a fast‑acting cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive. Other components: proprietary stabilisers and polymerisation inhibitors formulated for medical use. Packaged in a sterile single‑dose aluminium/polymer sachet designed to preserve adhesive integrity until use.
How to Use
- Clean the wound thoroughly with saline or antiseptic and ensure bleeding is controlled.
- Dry the surrounding skin completely — moisture prevents proper bonding.
- Approximate wound edges carefully using fingers or forceps; do not stretch skin.
- Open the sterile sachet and apply a small drop of Epiglu along the approximated edges; avoid excess adhesive.
- Hold edges together for 30–60 seconds until a clear film forms. Allow adhesive to cure fully (up to 2 minutes) before moving the area.
- Do not apply internally or into deep puncture wounds. Discard sachet after single use.
Who It’s For
Epiglu is suitable for healthcare professionals, paramedics and trained first‑aid providers managing superficial skin lacerations, small surgical incisions and minor trauma. It’s a practical addition to first aid kits, urgent care clinics and surgical suites as a suture alternative for appropriate wounds. Not intended for use on mucous membranes, near eyes, deep or infected wounds, or arterial bleeds.
