Dukal Iodoform Wound Packing Strip, ¼ Inch x 5 Yard

The Dukal Iodoform Wound Packing Strip is a medicated gauze strip designed to fill and pack deep wounds, abscesses, and cavities that need to heal from the inside out. Measuring ¼ inch wide by 5 yards long, it's ideal for caregivers, clinicians, and patients managing draining or tunneling wounds where a controlled, antiseptic packing material is needed. The iodoform content helps promote odor reduction while supporting a clean wound environment.

Made from a woven gauze fabric, this strip is engineered to reduce linting and fraying, so it packs smoothly into the wound bed and removes cleanly without leaving fibers behind. The continuous strip lets you cut the exact length you need to lightly fill a wound cavity, wick away drainage, and keep the space open so tissue can granulate properly. Its steady, even texture makes application and removal more comfortable and predictable during dressing changes.

Each strip is packaged in an unbreakable poly bottle with tamper-evident seals to help keep the product secure and ready when you need it. This item is available in a Single bottle or a convenient Box of 12 for higher-volume needs—simply choose your option below. Wound care supplies like this are typically FSA/HSA eligible, making it easy to stock up for ongoing home or clinical use.
