Prontoderm® Wipes

Prontoderm® Wipes are disposable tissues of 200 × 300mm available in packs of 10 wipes. The leave-on product is indicated for skin decolonization through physical cleansing, including the decolonization of MDROs (multidrug-resistant organisms) such as MRSA, VRE, ESBL. Prontoderm® contains a blend of skin-conditioning and moisturizing agents, along with the preservative polyhexanide (PHMB) which has antimicrobial properties.
