Smith & Nephew extends Allevyn Ag range of dressings
UK-based Smith & Nephew has added Allevyn Ag Gentle Border and Allevyn Ag Gentle to its range of wound dressings. The products are said to combine the antimicrobial properties of silver with the gentle treatment provided by silicone and soft gel adhesives, which have been specifically designed to minimize pain to the patient and trauma to the wound at dressing removal.
