Melgisorb Plus Alginate Dressing, 4 x 4 inch

Molnlycke Melgisorb Plus Alginate Dressing, 4 x 4 Inch

The Molnlycke Melgisorb Plus Alginate Dressing is a highly absorbent calcium alginate wound dressing designed for moderately to heavily exuding wounds. It's ideal for caregivers, clinicians, and individuals managing draining wounds who need reliable fluid control and a supportive healing environment. Its key benefit is fast, effective absorption that helps keep the wound bed at the right moisture level.

Once in contact with wound fluid, Melgisorb Plus absorbs exudate and quickly transforms into a soft gel, creating a moist wound environment that supports the natural healing process. This gelling action helps manage drainage while allowing for gentle, atraumatic removal, so daily dressing changes are more comfortable and less disruptive to the healing tissue underneath.

This dressing measures 4 x 4 inches (10 x 10 cm) and is available in multiple purchase options, including a single dressing, a box of 10, and a case of 100 to suit both occasional and ongoing wound care needs. Many wound care supplies like this are FSA/HSA eligible, so be sure to check your plan. Select your preferred quantity from the options below.
