Molnlycke Mesalt Sodium Chloride Impregnated Dressing, ¾ x 39 Inch

The Molnlycke Mesalt Sodium Chloride Impregnated Dressing is a sterile ribbon dressing designed for cavity and cleansing wounds that produce medium to high levels of exudate. Measuring ¾ inch wide by 39 inches long, this narrow ribbon format is ideal for packing deep or hard-to-reach wounds while its salt-impregnated action supports the natural cleansing process. It's a trusted choice for clinicians and caregivers managing draining, sloughy, or infected wounds.

Mesalt works by absorbing exudate, bacteria, and wound debris. The dressing is impregnated with sodium chloride, which is activated by wound fluid to help draw out contaminants and stimulate the cleansing of the wound bed. As it absorbs, it helps create the conditions the wound needs to move toward healing. The ribbon is easy to apply and remove, allowing you to gently pack a cavity and lift away debris at each dressing change.

This ribbon dressing measures ¾ inch by 39 inches and is sterile for safe, single-use application. It is available in multiple purchasing options—Single, Box of 10, and Case of 80—so you can stock the right quantity for home use or a clinical setting. This item may be FSA/HSA eligible.
