Cardinal Health Curity Nonimpregnated Wound Packing Strip, 0.5 Inch x 5 Yard

The Cardinal Health Curity Nonimpregnated Wound Packing Strip is a fine-mesh cotton gauze strip designed to gently pack deep wounds, tunnels, and cavities. Measuring 0.5 inch wide by 5 yards long, this plain (nonimpregnated) strip is a trusted choice for clinicians, caregivers, and patients managing draining or open wounds that need to heal from the inside out. Because it comes without any medication or moisturizing agent, it's especially well suited for wet-to-dry packing and other physician-directed wound care protocols.

Made from 100% cotton fine-mesh gauze, this packing strip conforms easily into narrow spaces to absorb exudate and support debridement when used in the wet-to-dry technique. The continuous 5-yard length lets you cut only what you need for each dressing change, helping reduce waste while keeping packing consistent from one application to the next. Its soft, uniform weave is gentle against fragile tissue and lays down smoothly to fill wound beds without bunching.

This plain, nonimpregnated strip pairs well with your preferred solution and secondary dressing as directed by a wound care professional. It's available as a single strip or a convenient case of 12, so you can stock up for ongoing care or keep one on hand as needed. Many home wound care supplies like this are FSA/HSA eligible.
