Xeroform Petrolatum Gauze, 2" x 2", Sterile, 25/bx

Xeroform Petrolatum Gauze is a sterile, non-adherent dressing that is composed of a petrolatum gauze saturated with 5% w/v of Xeroform. The petrolatum gauze is a non-woven, absorbent fabric that is impregnated with a petrolatum-based ointment. The ointment is a mixture of petrolatum, mineral oil, and white petrolatum. The petrolatum in the ointment forms a film on the skin that helps to prevent the loss of moisture. The mineral oil and white petrolatum help to keep the petrolatum from becoming solid at room temperature.
