Tegagen alginate dressing for moderate to heavily exuding wounds.

Traditionally known as 'the mariner's cure', alginates have been used as wound dressings for many years. Tegagen (formerly Tegagel) is an alginate dressing with improved performance from 3M. It is designed for a variety of wounds with moderate to high levels of exudate. Alginates are a very cost-effective treatment option for flat and cavity wounds of this type.
