Mepitel® Ag by Mölnlycke is a gentle, antimicrobial wound contact layer designed to protect fragile tissue while reducing the risk of infection. It combines the proven benefits of Safetac® soft silicone technology with the antimicrobial power of silver sulfate, offering sustained bacterial protection for up to seven days. Mepitel® Ag allows exudate to pass through to a secondary absorbent dressing while maintaining a moist wound environment that supports natural healing.

• Antimicrobial protection: Silver sulfate provides sustained antimicrobial activity for up to seven days against a broad range of pathogens.
• Safetac® soft silicone technology: Gently adheres to surrounding skin without sticking to the wound bed, minimizing pain and trauma during dressing changes.
• Exudate transfer layer: Allows wound fluid to pass to a secondary absorbent dressing, maintaining moisture balance and reducing maceration.
• Reduces infection risk: Helps lower bacterial load in both infected and colonized wounds.
• Flexible and conformable: Adapts easily to body contours and fragile skin, making it ideal for sensitive wound areas.
• Extended wear time: Can remain in place for up to 14 days depending on clinical condition, reducing dressing changes.
• Sterile and single-use: Individually packaged for infection prevention and clinical convenience.

Recommended for use on partial-thickness burns, skin tears, donor sites, surgical wounds, and leg or pressure ulcers where antimicrobial action is desired. Always follow manufacturer guidelines and clinical protocols for optimal application and wear time.
