SNOGG's FOAM F COMPRESS dressing is an advanced, clinically validated solution for treating acute and chronic wounds in animals.

Analytical Composition and Actives

• Polyurethane foam: 100% hydrophilic, sterilized by gamma rays. High absorption capacity (up to 10 times its weight).
• Semi-permeable outer layer: It protects against bacteria and external fluids, allowing gas exchange.
• Non-adherent inner layer: Minimize trauma to the wound bed when changing the dressing.
• Latex-free: Hypoallergenic, ideal for animals with sensitive skin.

Dosage and Correct Administration

The FOAM F COMPRESS dressing should be applied directly to the wound after proper cleaning:

• Species: Dogs, cats, rabbits, birds and small to medium-sized reptiles.
• Change frequency: Every 24–48 hours or when the dressing is saturated, depending on the level of exudate.
• Fixation: Use cohesive bandage, tubular mesh, or hypoallergenic adhesive tape.
• Combined therapies: Compatible with hydrocolloid gels, antiseptic solutions and topical antibiotics.

Safety, Side Effects and Contraindications
