Sterile Saline Wound Wash
Care Wash is a sterile 0.9% sodium chloride (USP) saline solution in single-use ampoules, used to rinse and irrigate an area as a gentle first step in a wound-care routine. Each twist-open ampoule is sterile and used once, so there is no bottle to keep clean between uses.
For external use only. Not for injection. Use as part of a clinician-directed routine and follow the package directions.
