Product Description

• The Smith & Nephew Opsite Post-Op Dressing is a sterile, transparent, and waterproof adhesive wound dressing designed to protect surgical and minor wounds.


• With its advanced film technology, this dressing acts as a barrier against water and bacteria while allowing moisture vapor to escape, which helps reduce the risk of infection and promotes a healthy healing environment.


• The low-adherence pad minimizes discomfort during dressing changes, and its transparency allows users to monitor the wound without removal.

How To Use:

• Wash your hands thoroughly before handling the dressing to avoid contamination.


• Clean and dry the wound area as per your healthcare provider’s instructions.


• Peel away the protective backing of the dressing without touching the adhesive side.


• Apply the dressing gently over the wound, ensuring the pad is centered on the affected area.


• Smooth down the edges to ensure full contact with the skin and to seal the wound securely.


• Change the dressing as advised, or if it becomes loose, wet, or soiled.

Warnings and Precautions:

• For external use only.


• Do not use on infected wounds without medical supervision.


• Avoid use if the packaging is damaged or if the dressing appears compromised.


• Discontinue use if you experience irritation, rash, or allergic reaction.


• Not suitable for large, heavily exuding wounds unless specified by a healthcare professional.


• Keep out of reach of children.


• This dressing should not be reused. Single-use only.


• Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
