PRONTOSAN® WOUND IRRIGATION SOLUTION 350ML

Prontosan® Wound Irrigation Solution

The solution for acute, chronic and burn wounds

Prontosan® contains betaine and polihexanide.

Betaine reduces the environmental surface tension of the biofilm which results in a maceration of the biofilm and finally allows a better penetration into it. The mechanism of action can basically be compared with a dishwashing detergent.

Polihexanide is an antimicrobial agent with broad specturm biocidal activity. The mode of action can be described as a non-specific electrostatic interaction with the bacterial cell wall. The attachment of polihexinde to the bacterial cell wall results in a disorganisation of the biological structure of the bacteria.
