Curity AMD PHMB Wound Packing Strip, 1 Inch x 1 Yard

Cardinal Health Curity AMD PHMB Wound Packing Strip, 1 Inch x 1 Yard

The Cardinal Health Curity AMD PHMB Wound Packing Strip is a sterile, antimicrobial wound filler designed for packing deep wounds, tunneling wounds, and cavities that need gentle absorption and infection protection. Impregnated with PHMB (polyhexamethylene biguanide), this packing strip is ideal for patients and caregivers managing draining or hard-to-dress wounds where controlling bacterial contamination within the dressing is a priority.

The antimicrobial (AMD) technology works by resisting bacterial colonization inside the dressing and reducing bacterial penetration through it, helping to limit cross-contamination during dressing changes. Its broad-spectrum effectiveness targets Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria as well as fungi and yeast, including MRSA and VRE. The soft, conformable strip packs easily into wound spaces to support fluid management while a secondary dressing holds it in place.

Each strip measures 1 inch by 1 yard and is sterile and hypoallergenic, making it suitable for sensitive skin. This product is available in multiple purchase options - Single, Box of 10, and Case of 50 - so you can stock the right quantity for occasional dressing changes or ongoing wound care. Many wound care supplies are FSA/HSA eligible. Select your preferred option below to order.
