Product Overview
The Deroyal 46-DN44 Dermanet Alginate Dressing, 4"x4" is a highly absorbent, calcium alginate wound dressing designed to manage moderate to heavily exuding wounds.

The Dermanet Alginate dressing conforms to the wound bed, making it ideal for wounds with irregular shapes and depths, ensuring complete coverage and comfort during wear.
The dressing is suitable for various clinical and home care applications, effectively supporting wound healing and reducing the need for frequent dressing changes due to its high absorbency.
