What is an Adhesive Bandage?
An Adhesive Bandage is a flexible strip of material with an adhesive backing used to cover and protect minor wounds or injuries. This wound dressing is typically made of cotton with spandex or elastic and is available in different sizes. Adhesive bandages come in either skin tone or white colors.
The adhesive backing allows the bandage to stick firmly to the skin, ensuring that it stays in place during daily activities. This Adhesive Bandage does not have a pad in the middle, so it should not be placed directly over a wound and should have a supporting sterile pad in between itself and the affected area.
AdvaCare Pharma is dedicated to the production of Adhesive Bandages that meet the highest standards of quality and safety. Our manufacturing facilities in India, China, and the USA are ISO and CE-certified, showcasing our commitment to strict healthcare and regulatory guidelines. Regular inspections are conducted to maintain the consistent delivery of superior medical supplies.
Product Specifications
Material
Lightweight Spandex + Cotton adhesive bandage combines stretchability and shape retention for optimal performance. With excellent stretch, it conforms to the body without limiting movement. The cotton component adds softness, breathability, and moisture absorption, ensuring comfort during prolonged wear.
Cotton adhesive bandage provides excellent adaptability and comfort. Its smooth texture ensures a gentle touch against the skin. While offering good stretch, the cotton material has less elasticity compared to adhesive bandages made with elastic fibers, providing a balance between support and flexibility. This bandage is an ideal choice for covering and protecting minor wounds or injuries.
High-Twist Elastic Cotton adhesive bandage offers superior elasticity and compression for effective support and stability. Utilizing a specialized weaving technique, this bandage has enhanced stretchability, allowing it to conform to the body's contours while maintaining its shape during active movements. The combination of high-twist elastic and cotton materials ensures optimal comfort, breathability, and durability.

Uses
How should an Adhesive Bandage be used?
To use an Adhesive Bandage, start by cleaning the affected area and ensuring it is dry. Apply a non-adhesive dressing pad directly to the wound if necessary, as the bandage itself should not be placed on an open wound. Begin wrapping the bandage around the area, starting from a point just beyond the injury, stretching it slightly as you go for optimal compression.
Continue wrapping, ensuring each layer overlaps the previous one to provide support and limit movement. Once you've covered the necessary area, secure the end of the bandage. Regularly check for signs of excessive tightness or discomfort, and adjust as needed.
Can an Adhesive Bandage be used when there is no wound?
Yes, adhesive bandages can be used for purposes other than covering wounds. For instance, they can provide support and compression for minor injuries like sprained ankles, reducing swelling and helping with stabilization during the healing process.
What precautions should be considered when using Adhesive Bandage?
It is important to regularly change adhesive bandages to prevent infection. Follow the recommended frequency of bandage changes provided by a healthcare professional or as stated on the packaging.
FAQs
How long can an Adhesive Bandage be left on?
Adhesive bandages are typically recommended to be left in place for a few days, but it is important to check the instructions or consult with a healthcare professional for specific guidance. Change the bandage if it becomes dirty, wet, or starts to loosen.
Can Adhesive Bandages be used on sensitive skin?
Adhesive bandages are generally designed to be hypoallergenic. However, if the user has known allergies or sensitivities to certain adhesives or materials, it is advisable to test the bandage on a small area of skin before applying it to a larger area. If any irritation or discomfort occurs, remove the bandage and seek an alternative solution.
Can these Adhesive Bandages be used in water?
No, these Adhesive Bandages are not waterproof.
Can Adhesive Bandages be reused?
Adhesive bandages are generally designed for single use and are not recommended for reuse. Once a bandage has been removed, discard it and use a fresh bandage for the next application. Reusing adhesive bandages may compromise their adhesive properties and increase the risk of infection or contamination.
