Mepore Self-Adhesive Absorbent dressing combines gentle and secure fixation with excellent absorption. Molnlycke's Mepore #671100 measures 3.6" x 8" and is packaged in a box of 30 individually wrapped dressings. This self-adherent, sterile, absorbent dressing is intended for treating low to moderately exuding wounds, such as surgical wounds, cuts and abrasions. Mepore is flexible and conforms well to body contours and allows movement when in place. The adhesive in Mepore is water-based. Many competitor products have a solvent-based adhesive which run the risk of solvent residuals in the adhesive causing skin reactions.
