Viscopaste Zinc Paste Roll 7.5cm x 6m by Smith & Nephew
Description:
Viscopaste is an open weave bandage which is impregnated with zinc paste and is individually wrapped. Viscopaste is a general purpose first-line treatment for wet and dry leg ulcers and chronic eczema/dermatitis where occlusion is indicated. Viscopaste bandages soothe and protect the skin and are easily removed. To augment the treatment, always cover the Viscopaste bandage with a suitable compression bandage (this is not suitable for everyone, check with healthcare professional)
Usage Directions:
Read the label and use as directed or use as advised by your healthcare professional.
Storage:
Store in a cool dry place out of direct sunlight.
Warnings:
Always read the label. Follow the directions for use. If symptoms persist, consult your healthcare professional.
For Topical Use Only.
Where venous insufficiency exists, Viscopaste may be used under graduated, sustained compression bandaging, after first assessing the patient to exclude arterial disease. The use of Doppler ultrasound is recommended for this purpose.
Failure to detect reduced arterial flow can result in pressure necrosis, amputation or even death. The risk of a patient having arterial as well as venous disease rises with age.
One of the functions of occlusive bandages is to increase absorption. Care should be taken, therefore, if it is decided to apply topical steroid, anaesthetic, or retinoid preparations under the bandage, as their absorption may be significantly increased. This may lead to a shorter duration of effect of a topical anaesthetic product.
The skin of leg ulcer patients is easily sensitized to topical medicaments - including preservatives. Sensitization should be suspected in patients, particularly where there is deterioration of the surrounding skin. Such patients should be referred for specialist diagnosis, including patch testing.
