Further information
Fields of Application
octenisept® gel is designed for treating acute wounds such as grazes, cuts, minor burns, and sunburn. It aids optimal wound healing by maintaining a moist environment, which is crucial for skin cell division and migration. The gel forms a protective layer against bacteria, inactivating pathogens and preventing infections. This process supports and accelerates natural wound healing. Additionally, octenisept® gel has a cooling effect that alleviates itching. It is colorless and non-burning upon application.

Non-irritating, non-sensitising, pain-free, without tissue toxicity, no impairment of granulation or epithelialisation. The good tolerability of Octenidine has been confirmed by clinical experience over many years and by clinical studies on chronic wounds.
