Intrasite Gel 25g

About Intrasite Gel 25g

Intrasite Gel Uses

• Larger chronic wounds such as extensive leg ulcers
• Diabetic foot ulcers that need frequent gel top ups
• Autolytic debridement of thick, sloughy tissue
• Post surgical wounds with a bigger surface area
• Pressure sores that cover a wide wound bed

Intrasite Gel Benefits

• Bigger 25g tube lasts longer for extensive wounds
• Keeps a large wound bed moist for effective healing
• Softens thick dead tissue gradually and gently
• Reduces how often the tube needs replacing during long term care
• Compatible with most secondary dressing types

Hospitals and wound care clinics in Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad, and Rawalpindi often stock the 25g size of Intrasite Gel for patients with larger or slow healing wounds, since Pakistan has a growing number of diabetic ulcer cases that need extended wound care. The bigger tube suits patients who need gel applied over several weeks.

This larger pack works the same way as the smaller tube. It donates moisture to dry tissue so the body can clear it naturally, a process known as autolytic debridement. The bigger volume simply means fewer tube changes for patients with more extensive wounds.

Since this is a specialized wound care product, a doctor or wound care nurse should guide its use, especially for slow healing or infected wounds. The 25g tube costs around Rs 1961, and it is best reserved for wounds that genuinely need this larger volume rather than smaller cuts or scrapes.

Drug Interactions

• Strong Antiseptic Solutions: Avoid combining with hydrogen peroxide or iodine based antiseptics, which can counteract the gel's moisture balance.
• Other Debriding Agents: Do not mix with additional enzymatic or chemical debriding products without professional advice.
• Occlusive Dressings: Use caution when pairing with heavily occlusive dressings, since this combination should be guided by a wound care specialist.

Risks and warnings

• Infected Wounds: Avoid use on wounds showing pus, foul smell, or fever without a doctor's review.
• Overuse: Applying too thick a layer can macerate the healthy skin bordering the wound.
• Extensive Wounds: Large or deep wounds need proper medical assessment before starting gel therapy.
• Diabetic Patients: Regular follow up matters since diabetic wounds can worsen quickly if unmonitored.
• Skin Sensitivity: Discontinue and consult a doctor if you notice unusual irritation or an allergic reaction.

Side Effects

• Temporary stinging or burning on application
• Redness around the wound margins
• Mild itching at the treated area
• Skin maceration if used excessively
• Uncommon allergic skin response
