{"title":"Prontosan","description":"\u003ch1\u003eProntosan Wound Irrigation \u0026amp; Cleansing Solutions\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen a chronic wound stalls, biofilm is often the culprit — a stubborn layer of bacteria that shields itself from healing and standard cleansing. \u003cstrong\u003eProntosan\u003c\/strong\u003e is formulated to address exactly this problem. Built around the combination of polyhexanide (PHMB) and betaine surfactant, it works to loosen, penetrate, and lift biofilm and debris from the wound bed, helping to create the clean environment wounds need to progress toward closure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eClinicians reach for Prontosan across a range of settings — pressure injuries, diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, surgical wounds, and burns. The betaine surfactant reduces surface tension so the solution can reach into crevices and under slough, while PHMB helps manage the microbial burden. The result is a gentle yet effective cleanse that supports the body's own healing without the cytotoxicity associated with harsher antiseptics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Prontosan line is generally available in two familiar forms: a pourable \u003cstrong\u003ewound irrigation solution\u003c\/strong\u003e for flushing and soaking dressings, and a thicker \u003cstrong\u003ewound gel\u003c\/strong\u003e that stays in place on the wound bed between dressing changes, extending contact time on hard-to-treat or cavity wounds. Many caregivers use the solution to moisten gauze or soak a wound for several minutes before irrigating, then apply the gel for ongoing management under a secondary dressing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProntosan is designed for repeated use over a course of care and is well tolerated on fragile skin, making it suitable for both facility protocols and home wound management guided by a clinician. Always follow the directions on the product label and your healthcare provider's wound care plan for contact time and frequency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eExplore complementary supplies in our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/honestmed.com\/collections\/wound-care-first-aid\"\u003eWound Care \u0026amp; First Aid\u003c\/a\u003e category, or browse \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/honestmed.com\/collections\/wound-dressings\"\u003eWound Dressings\u003c\/a\u003e to pair with your cleansing routine.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/honestmed.com\/collections\/prontosan.oembed","provider":"Honest Medical","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
