New Size Hemostatic Gauze for Larger Wound

Due to the overwhelming positive response of BloodSTOP® iX Hemostatic Gauze’s ½” x 2” sterile gauze strips, PRN Pharmacal is pleased to announce the addition of a new, larger size. The 2” x 2” sterile gauze pads are the latest addition to the BloodSTOP family of products exclusively available in the Veterinary Market from PRN Pharmacal.

BloodSTOP ix stops bleeding fast. Upon application, BloodSTOP’s sterile hemostatic gauze begins to absorb water from the blood, quickly producing a colloid and blocking the capillary. BloodSTOP adheres to the platelet causing red blood cells to collect and activates the coagulation factor.

“BloodSTOP ix has been well received in the industry,” said Gary Cushing, Vice President of Sales, “we’ve added this larger size to make this excellent product easier to use on larger wound sites. Low investment cost, use versatility and product performance is what makes BloodSTOP an easy choice when stocking a hospital or clinic.”

BloodSTOP is an effective and flexible solution for homeostasis for the range of veterinary medicine. The new 2” x 2” strips are packaged individually in foil packet to prevent exposure to moisture. BloodSTOP is sold in boxes of four packets.
