Wound cleansing
A new look at wound cleansing
In managing wounds, it remains a common practice to either use soap and water or stronger solutions. The problem is that soap and water are ineffective against some pathogens whereas many stronger solutions potentially disturb the healing process and potentially damage human cells. Granudacyn® is your go-to wound cleanser – cleansing wounds, supporting healing.
