    Hi
    I was wondering what the views were on prontosan, we have just recently started using the product in the department I work to cleanse sloughy wounds and the results have been excellent.

    Hi,
    I think it's great stuff. I picked up a few samples at a conference last year and have been using it on ulcers for a while now and find it works well - just can't persuade other members of my department to give it a fair try.
    Have tried and failed miserably to get hold of a rep from the company to come and gives us their talk on it though - that always concerns me (although it could just be that Robert's reputation for eating reps has now reached all of the companies!).

    It would be nice to hear a few other clinicians experiences - especially if there have been any problems.

    Hi Amanda,

    We use Prontosan solution and gel on a daily basis within our busy acute services podiatry dept and have amazing results. The build up of biofilms on wounds can delay wound healing with recurring infection, renewal of slough on previously dedrided wounds at a huge cost to both providers of care and patients. Glad to hear your are having the same success as we are.
