Sofargen what it is for
Aqueous topical dressing containing Silver Sulfadiazine. The gel with a high water content (over 95%), keeps the lesion hydrated by promoting the tissue repair process, creates a barrier to external agents protecting the damaged skin thanks to the presence of silver. It also promotes debridement in necrotic lesions.
The presence of Silver Sulfadiazine, a metallorganic compound obtained by reacting silver nitrate with Sulfadiazine, prevents microbial contamination of the dressing and keeps the wound environment free from other exogenous bacteria.
The particular formulation of Sofargen Gel creates an environment that facilitates the natural healing process and provides an effective barrier to microbial penetration. The product remains easily "in situ" and is not affected by the stretching of the wound edges. It can be easily removed by cleaning the lesion with saline.
