McKesson Skin Barrier Half-Arc Strip McKesson Dressing Retention Tape, Non-Sterile, 2 In x 10 Yds - 16-4802-Box - LL Medico

McKesson Skin Barrier Strips 1/2 Arc, Water Resistant Hydrocolloid, 1 in Width

McKesson Skin Barrier Strips are pre-cut, half-arc shaped hydrocolloid strips designed to picture-frame the flange of an ostomy pouching system for added security and peristomal skin protection. Each strip measures 1 inch in width and features a water-resistant surface that allows patients to bathe, shower, or swim with confidence while the pouching system stays securely in place.

The gentle, highly absorbent hydrocolloid adhesive soaks up exudate while providing high-tack adhesion for a reliable seal around the stoma. This hydrocolloid skin barrier can be applied directly to the skin as a barrier beneath the pouching system, or placed over the pouch to reinforce and secure the flange in position, giving ostomy patients added peace of mind throughout the day.

Designed with sensitive skin in mind, these strips remove gently to help prevent the trauma associated with repeated tape or adhesive removal, making them a smart choice for patients with tape allergies or a history of skin irritation. For best results, apply McKesson skin barrier film to the peristomal skin or underneath the pouch prior to applying the skin barrier strip.

Trusted by ostomy patients and caregivers alike, McKesson skin barrier strips offer a convenient, pre-shaped solution that simplifies application while supporting healthy, protected peristomal skin.
