Dosing overview

Wash hands before and after applying FILSUVEZ or wear gloves for application. Apply a 1 mm layer of FILSUVEZ to the affected wound surface only. Do not rub in the gel. Cover the wound with a sterile non-adhesive wound dressing. Alternatively, apply FILSUVEZ directly to the dressing so that the topical gel is in direct contact with the wound. Apply FILSUVEZ to cleansed wounds with wound dressing changes until the wound is healed. If a FILSUVEZ-treated wound becomes infected, discontinue treatment to that wound until the infection has resolved. Each tube of FILSUVEZ is for one-time use only. Once the tube is opened, use the product immediately. Discard the tube after use in household trash or through a drug take back site, if available. Avoid contact of FILSUVEZ with eyes and mucous membranes (e.g., mouth, vagina, anus). In case of accidental contact, irrigate the area with water.
