The 3DFit foam structure conforms to the wound bed for superior absorption even under compression. The ibuprofen is released when the foam contacts wound exudate, providing a sustained low dose of local pain relief between dressing changes. Comparative studies cited by Coloplast have shown a reduction in wound pain in patients wearing Biatain Ibu compared with dressings without ibuprofen.
Biatain Ibu Non-Adhesive dressings have no adhesive and require secondary fixation such as tape or compression wrapping. They are a soft, flexible dressing with bevelled edges that reduce the risk of pressure marks during wear. Available in 4 sizes: 10 x 10cm, 10 x 20cm, 15 x 15cm, and 20 x 20cm. Indicated for leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, non-infected diabetic foot ulcers, second-degree burns, donor sites, postoperative wounds, and skin abrasions.
Biatain Ibu Soft-Hold dressings have a partially adherent layer that provides gentle adhesion without a full adhesive border. They stay in place with light contact, which can be helpful on sensitive skin. Available in 2 sizes: 10 x 10cm and 10 x 20cm. Indicated for the same wound types as the non-adhesive version, but should not be used on donor sites.
Both formats can be used in combination with compression therapy. They are not made with natural rubber latex.
For wounds that are not painful and do not need ibuprofen, the standard Biatain Foam provides the same 3DFit absorption without the added medication. For wounds that are infected, Biatain Ag Foam provides antimicrobial silver. For heavily exuding wounds, Biatain Super offers maximum absorption. Consult your healthcare provider for guidance on whether ibuprofen-releasing dressings are appropriate for your wound.
