Mepore® Pro is intended for use on low to moderately exuding wounds, such as surgical wounds, cuts and abrasions.

Mepore® Pro should not be applied on patients who are sensitive to acrylic adhesive. Care should be taken to minimize skin tension that could cause mechanical damage to the skin. Ensure that Mepore® Pro is not applied under tension, and be careful when applying over joints to apply in such a way that it does not impair the flexibility of the joints.

After some surgical interventions, excessive swelling may occur. In such cases, it may be preferable to use a more flexible dressing in order to minimize skin tension.

In case of clinical signs of infection such as pain, redness, swelling or unusual odor or discharge, continued use of Mepore® Pro should be determined by a health care professional.

Mepore® Pro should not be used for heavily exuding wounds.
