How to Use
- Prepare the wound using the wound-care procedure recommended by your clinician.
- Wash your hands before and after application. Wear gloves if your clinician directs you to do so.
- Choose a dressing slightly larger than the wound, as advised by your clinician.
- Remove the dressing from its protective packaging. If needed, fold it to fit the wound shape, but do not cut it.
- Place either side against the wound. Direct contact with the wound bed allows the dressing to work most effectively.
- Cover and secure it with an appropriate secondary dressing, as directed by your clinician.
- The dressing may remain in place for up to 7 days, depending on drainage. Your clinician may recommend changing it every 24 hours initially. If no other removal schedule is given, replace it at least every 7 days.
- Change the secondary absorbent dressing as needed. When replacing the charcoal dressing, remove it from the wound and discard it.

- Do not use if you have a known sensitivity to silver or another dressing component.
- For external use only.
- Single use only. Do not reuse.
- Do not cut the dressing. Loose particles may enter the wound and cause discolouration.
- Consult a clinician and read the product instructions for use before application. Self-care should be guided by a healthcare professional.
- Wound infection requires clinical assessment and treatment of its underlying cause.
