Overview
Surgical
Uses & Benefits
Securing wound dressings and gauze, Fixation of IV cannulas/tubing and catheters, General medical/surgical taping, Suitable for sensitive skin and frequent dressing changes
How It Works
Micropore tape adheres to skin using a gentle pressure-sensitive adhesive to hold dressings/devices in place. Its porous backing allows air and moisture vapour to pass through, helping reduce skin maceration and improving comfort during wear.
Directions for Use
Clean and dry the skin before application. Cut required length, apply without stretching, and press edges firmly. Replace if soiled or loose; remove slowly by peeling back over itself while supporting the skin.
For external use only. Do not apply on infected, heavily exuding wounds without appropriate dressing. Discontinue if rash, blistering, or significant irritation occurs. Use caution on fragile skin (elderly, infants) and when removing to avoid skin damage. Not intended as a primary wound contact layer.
Drug Interactions
No known drug interactions; may reduce adhesion if used over oily creams/ointments or sweaty/wet skin
