FAQs
How to use Debrifine Ointment?
Before using this medicine, clean the wound with saline or another mild wound-cleansing solution recommended by the doctor. Apply the ointment directly to the wound, cover it with an appropriate dressing, and secure it into place. If possible, change the dressing 1 to 2 times per day.
Can I use other skin creams while using Debrifine Ointment?
It is advisable to avoid using other creams on the affected area while using this ointment without consulting the doctor. If your doctor prescribes other skin creams or ointments along with Debrifine Ointment, you should maintain an interval of at least 30 mins between the two medications.
What precautions should I take while using Debrifine Ointment?
This ointment is for topical use (for skin) only. Do not use it on open cuts and infected skin, and avoid contact with eyes, nose, mouth, and genitals. It can make your skin more sensitive to the harmful effects of sunlight. So, use sunscreen and wear protective clothing while using Debrifine Ointment. Also do not use it on larger areas and for prolonged periods unless prescribed by the doctor.
Can I use hydrogen peroxide solution to clean the area before applying Debrifine Ointment?
It is advisable to avoid cleansing the wound with hydrogen peroxide solution before applying Debrifine Ointment as it may inactivate the papain present in it.
I can feel slight discomfort after using Debrifine Ointment on the wound area. Is this normal?
Yes, you may feel a slight burning sensation after applying Debrifine Ointment. This is due to the enzymatic action of papain present in the ointment. In such cases, more frequent dressing changes will reduce discomfort until the wound is healed.
