Medical Adhesive Remover Spray

The silicone medical adhesive remover (SMAR) from Aurena Laboratories gently and painlessly removes adhesive products, such as stoma pouches and wound dressings.

The Adhesive Remover is free of preservatives, does not sting on application and preserves skin integrity.

Frequently removing medical adhesive devices from the skin creates untoward effects on the skin, as layer by layer of the stratum corneum (the superficial layer of the skin) is stripped off. The result is a reduced barrier function and inflammation of the skin. This is particularly a problem for stoma patients, among others, who change their device repeatedly during the day.

Medical Adhesive Remover Spray makes the removal of the device more skin friendly by avoiding skin stripping and thereby avoiding loss of natural functions of the skin. Thus, pain is reduced, cost of care is less and quality of life of patients is increased. The silicone based medical adhesive also enables continued use of devices fastened on the skin and thereby concordance with suggested care.
