Vaseline Petrolatum Impregnated Dressing, 3 x 18 Inch

Cardinal Health Vaseline Petrolatum Impregnated Dressing, 3 x 18 Inch

The Cardinal Health Vaseline Petrolatum Impregnated Dressing is a sterile, nonadherent wound dressing designed to protect and soothe a wide range of wounds, including burns, lacerations, skin grafts, donor sites, and abrasions. Measuring 3 x 18 inches, this fine-mesh gauze is saturated with petrolatum (Vaseline) to create a gentle, moist barrier that supports comfortable healing for patients and caregivers alike.

The petrolatum impregnant remains moist against the wound, helping to keep the dressing from sticking so that dressing changes are less painful and less disruptive to delicate new tissue. The dressing clings and conforms to all body contours, making it easy to apply over difficult areas like fingers, joints, and irregular surfaces. Because the petrolatum is nontoxic, nonsensitizing, and nonirritating, it is well suited for sensitive skin and everyday wound management at home or in clinical settings.

Each dressing arrives sterile in a convenient peelable foil pack that keeps the product protected and ready for aseptic use. This product is available in multiple options">choose a Single unit, a Box of 12, or a Case of 72 to match how often you change dressings. Many wound care supplies like this are FSA/HSA eligible.
