Description

Curad Sterile Iodoform Gauze Packing Strips, 1/2" x 5 yd, are made from 100% cotton and are impregnated with iodoform, a compound known for its antimicrobial properties. These strips are specifically designed for packing or serving as drainage conduits in open or infected wounds.

The packing strips are tightly woven, making them ravel-resistant, which means they will not fray or shed fibers. This quality ensures that the strips remain intact during placement and removal, reducing the risk of foreign material remaining in the wound. This feature is particularly important in surgical and wound care settings where cleanliness and precision are essential.

These gauze strips are commonly recommended for use in nasal or sinus packing, as well as for treating boils, abscesses, fistulas, and other types of draining or tunneling wounds. The strips facilitate proper drainage and help manage the flow of exudate, which is crucial for maintaining a clean wound environment and promoting optimal healing.
