Smith & Nephew BACTIGRAS Medicated Paraffin Gauze Dressing (10 cm x 10 cm)

Smith & Nephew BACTIGRAS® Medicated Paraffin Gauze Dressing (10 cm × 10 cm) is a sterile, low-adherent wound contact dressing designed to provide gentle antibacterial protection while supporting an optimal healing environment. The dressing consists of open-weave cotton gauze impregnated with soft white paraffin and 0.5% chlorhexidine acetate, helping protect wounds from bacterial contamination while minimizing trauma during dressing changes.

The soft paraffin coating prevents the dressing from sticking to the wound surface, enhancing patient comfort and helping preserve newly formed tissue. Its open-weave structure allows wound exudate to pass through into a secondary absorbent dressing, supporting effective moisture balance and wound management.
