Mesalt is an absorbent viscose, polyester nonwoven dressing impregnated with sodium chloride that effectively stimulates the cleansing of heavily discharging and discharging infected wounds. The discharge from the wound releases the sodium chloride from the dressing, stimulating the cleansing of wounds in the inflammatory phase. Mesalt absorbs exudate, bacteria and necrotic material from the wound, thereby facilitating the natural wound healing process.
