Simpurity Xeroform Petrolatum Impregnated Dressing, 4 x 4 Inch

Safe Simpurity Xeroform Petrolatum Impregnated Dressing, 4 x 4 Inch

The Safe Simpurity Xeroform Petrolatum Impregnated Dressing is a soft, fine-mesh gauze dressing infused with a petrolatum blend designed to protect wounds while keeping the healing environment moist. Measuring 4 x 4 inches, it is ideal for individuals managing minor burns, abrasions, skin grafts, lacerations, surgical sites, and other draining or non-draining wounds that benefit from a gentle, non-adhering cover.

Because the dressing is impregnated with petrolatum, it will not stick to the wound bed, which means easy, comfortable removal that helps protect fragile new tissue and reduces trauma at each dressing change. The pliable mesh conforms to the body and contours around difficult areas, providing consistent contact and a moist barrier that supports the body's natural healing process while helping to shield the site from external contaminants.

This dressing is available in multiple purchasing options, including a Single dressing, a Box of 10, and a Case of 100, so you can stock up for ongoing wound care or keep just what you need on hand. It works well as a primary contact layer beneath a secondary absorbent dressing and is commonly FSA/HSA eligible. Select your preferred quantity from the options below.
