1. WHAT IS BEPANTHEN PLUS AND WHAT IS IT USED FOR

Bepanthen Plus contains two active substances: dexpanthenol and chlorhexidine.
Dexpanthenol, after penetrating the skin, quickly converts to pantothenic acid, which plays an important role in skin construction and regeneration during wound healing.
Chlorhexidine is a disinfectant that acts on Gram-positive bacteria, including sensitive strains of Staphylococcus aureus, which are the most common cause of skin infections.
Chlorhexidine acts weaker on Gram-negative bacteria and does not act on bacteria of the Pseudomonasand Proteusgenus.

Indications

Treatment and disinfection of superficial wounds of various types, when there is a risk of their infection (e.g., scratches, cuts, abrasions, skin cracks, burns, scalds, skin inflammation) and treatment of wounds after minor surgical procedures.
