WHEN WE REMOVE THE PRODUCT, WE ARE DILIGENT TO USE DETACHOL(TM) TO REMOVE GLUE RESIDUE. WE INSTRUCT THE PATIENTS TO ALSO USE GOOGONE(TM) AT HOME THEN SOAP AND WATER.

WHAT TYPE OF DRESSING(S) DO YOU CURRENTLY USE, IF ANY, OVER TOP OF PRINEO? SIMPLE DRY STERILE GAUZE (ABD PADS), THEN AN ABDOMINAL BINDER OR SURGICAL BRA. NOTHING ELSE. PATIENTS ARE ALLOWED TO SHOWER WHEN READY. THEY APPLY ABSOLUTELY NO TOPICALS OR LOTIONS.
