Healthpore (4 X 7.5Cm(3") X 5Mtr) Micropore Paper Tape By Martin & Brown

What is it used for?
Micropore paper tape is used to secure dressings, gauze, bandages and medical tubing to the skin. It is commonly used in first aid and wound care.

How does it work?
Its gentle adhesive sticks to the skin and holds the dressing or tubing in place.

How to take/use it
Apply to clean, dry skin around the dressing or tubing. Press gently to secure it without wrapping too tightly. Remove slowly and gently, supporting the skin. Do not apply directly over an open wound.

Common side effects
Mild redness, itching, skin irritation or discomfort when removed. Some people may develop an adhesive-related skin reaction.

Precautions
Do not use on broken or irritated skin if it causes discomfort. Stop using it if severe redness, swelling, itching or a rash develops. Keep the tape and wound area clean and dry, and seek medical advice if the wound shows increasing pain, pus, spreading redness or fever.
