SKIN-PREP◊

REMOVE◊

For OTC applications, please follow Directions and Instructions for Use provided by your physician, nurse or healthcare professional. If no instructions were provided, follow the directions below:

Step 1

Skin should be clean and dry prior to application of SKIN-PREP◊.

Step 2

Apply a uniform coating over entire area you wish to protect, i.e., around stoma, under dressing, catheter site, etc.

Step 3

SKIN-PREP◊ will dry in approximately 30 seconds. If you miss an area that you intended to cover, wait until the original area of application has dried, then reapply to the missed area.

Step 4

For maximum protection, an optional second coating of SKIN-PREP◊ may be applied and allowed to dry before covering area with dressing or other adhesive product.

Step 5

If SKIN-PREP◊ is applied to an area with skin folds or other skin-to-skin contact, make sure that skin-contact areas are separated to allow the coating to thoroughly dry before returning to normal position.

Removal:

Step 1

The removal of adhesive products may also remove SKIN-PREP◊, so reapplication is necessary any time that adhesive products are changed.

Step 2

Removal of SKIN-PREP◊ is not necessary before reapplication. Clean and dry the area and apply fresh SKIN-PREP◊ as directed above.
