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 – tough on pathogens, compatible with human cells.
Did you know.....
that wound cleansers support wound healing by removing
local barriers and reducing the risk of infection?
Granudacyn® is an irrigation solution, safely preserved by hypochlorous acid (HOCl). It is used for cleansing and moisturising chronic, acute, surgical and contaminated wounds as well as for first- and second-degree burns. It can also be applied on sensitive tissues such as cartilage, tendons, ligaments and bones

Effective on all types of wounds
Granudacyn can be used on all chronic wounds, including diabetic foot ulcers, pressure ulcers and venous leg ulcers. Additionally, it can be used on acute and contaminated wounds as well as first- and second-degree burns. - Proven safety and efficacy
Several tests show the efficacy, biocompatibility and proven safety of Granudacyn. - Reduces malodor
HOCl quickly reduces wound malodor, that is often associated with necrotic tissue or bacterial colonization in the wound bed. - Better care, better quality of life
Tackling infection while not interrupting the natural healing process is important for patient wellbeing and supports healing. - Long storage, always at hand
Granudacyn can be stored at room temperature after opening for multi-patient use up to 90 days (gel) and 60 days (solution).
Apply Granudacyn® to the wound bed before cleaning the wound. The solution does not require neutralisation or rinsing, and can be used for moistening the wound dressing and moisturising the wound itself.

Granudacyn® facilitates the mechanical removal of microorganisms and cell debris |
 |
|
1. Disrupts the cell wall structures. The hypochlorous acid in Granudacyn® increases the permeability of the cell wall of the microorganism. |
2. Osmolysis leads to cell rupture. A hypotonic solution causes water to flow into the cells to equalise the osmotic gradient. The result is osmolysis: the increasing internal pressure causes the cells to burst. |
Setting up the body to heal
Granudacyn is not cytotoxic and doesn't cause irritation
Protects the wound from biofilm
Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is effective in releasing biofilm and aiding debridement
Highly biocompatible
Granudacyn is proven to be highly biocompatible, meaning that it has a positive benefit/risk ratio
