Mepilex

Mepilex is a wound care product that is designed to serve as an absorbent dressing for a wide range of exuding wounds. These may include leg and foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, surgical incisions, as well as traumatic wounds like skin tears, blisters, abrasions, and secondary healing wounds. Each day, patients in over 100 countries count on Mepilex wound dressing for wound care. Swedish-invented Molnylcke Mepilex wound dressing is easy to use and is highly effective in preventing infections.

Mepilex is a soft foam dressing that absorbs exudate and maintains a moist wound environment to promote better healing. Molnlycke Mepilex bandages are made with soft silicone foam materials that provide greater patient comfort and less trauma when changing dressings. The innovative Mepilex Safetac technology is conformable and prevents the dressing from sticking to the wound bed while adhering gently to the surrounding skin. Molnlycke Mepilex is made with soft, pliable materials, and the gentle yet effective adhesive allows the bandage to stay in place for several days. Easy to use and highly effective, Molnlycke Mepilex dressings ensure a low risk of maceration.
