Prontosan Gel

Prontosan Wound Gel is available in a 30 ml tamper resistant bottle with safety seal.  It has the same formulation as Prontosan solution but it is in gel form.  It is applied to wounds as a primary dressing and acts to actively prevent infection and the reformation of biofilm.  Ideally used on small wounds, cavities and other difficult to reach areas, it maintains a moist environment for the wound.

• Prontosan should not be used on anyone with a known or suspected allergy to betaine or PHMB.

• It is contraindicated for use on the central nervous system or meninges, middle or inner ear, eyes or on hyaline cartilage during surgery.

• Prontosan should not be combined with other wound cleansers or ointments.

• Although Prontosan is unlikely to cause harm as it is not absorbed systemically, it should only be used in pregnant or lactating women or babies and infants under medical supervision due to lack of appropriate clinical trials.
