Description
CE Class IIA medical device. Non-sterile.
Sofargen spray is a spray powder dressing for topical use containing light kaolin and 1% silver sulfadiazine. The product remains easily "in situ" and is not affected by the stretching of the wound edges. It can be easily removed by cleansing the lesion with saline solution. It is indicated for the local treatment of small contaminated skin lesions such as abrasions, excoriations, cuts, superficial wounds and dermatological conditions in general.

How to use
Shake the can vigorously for a few seconds before use. After appropriate cleansing of the lesion, make sure to direct the nozzle of the dispenser towards the lesion to be treated, keeping the can in a vertical position at a distance of about 15 cm from the surface to be treated. Then apply a uniform layer of Sofargen spray to the lesion, pressing the dispenser button for a few moments. The application of Sofargen spray should continue without interruption once or twice a day until complete healing. With each new application, thoroughly cleanse the lesion with water or saline solution. The powder contained in Sofargen spray will tend to adhere to the wound (due to the presence of exudate) or macerated skin, while on healthy and dry surrounding skin it will tend to remove itself spontaneously. Where appropriate or necessary, after applying Sofargen spray, cover the lesion with a plaster or bandage depending on its size.
The average duration of the dressing is 12-24 hours.
