• Due to the gentle adhesive used, do not use this dressing to secure other medical devices to the patient.
• If reddening or sensitisation occurs discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.
• Whilst showering, care must be taken to avoid wetting of the dressing. Do not expose to direct spray or submerge. Do not use with oxidizing agents such as hypochlorite solutions (e.g. EUSOL) or hydrogen peroxide as these can reduce the absorbency of the dressing.

Opening the dressing pack compromises the sterile barrier therefore any unused dressing should not be retained for use at a later date. If used on infected wounds, the infection should be managed as per local clinical protocol.
