Description:
• Dmid Chlorhexidine ®Dressing consists of a cotton leno-weave fabric, impregnated with   Soft Paraffin BP, containing 0.5% w/w Chlorhexidine Acetate BP.

• Chlorhexidine is an antimicrobial agent that is active against a wide range of Gram positive and Gramnegative bacteria but inactive against spores, fungi and viruses; it is more effective against Grampositive than Gram-negative organisms, and some species of Pseudomonas and Proteus are of limited sensitivity. 

Indications:
• Dmid Chlorhexidine ®Dressing is used as a wound dressing for the prevention of infection in minor skin loss injuries and ulcerative wounds.

• It is not the product of choice for the treatment of existing wound infections as the amount of chlorhexidine that is released from the dressing is limited, but Dmid Chlorhexidine ®Dressing may be used as an adjunct to systemic antibiotic therapy where appropriate
