How Trulon 4-0(1.5metric) Suture SN 3319PS Works

Polyglycolic acid is an absorbable synthetic suture that provides temporary wound support and is gradually broken down in the body by hydrolysis. Tensile strength reduces progressively as healing occurs and the suture is absorbed over time.

Dosage & Directions

Use only by trained healthcare professionals. Select appropriate suture size/needle for tissue and tension required. Handle gently; avoid crushing/kinking. Use standard surgical knotting technique (typically additional throws for braided sutures) and follow institutional protocol.

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.

Key Benefits

Predictable absorption by hydrolysis
Good handling and knot security
Reduced need for suture removal
Suitable for soft tissue approximation and ligation
Minimal tissue reactivity compared to natural sutures

Pregnancy

Generally safe (medical device; use as clinically indicated)
