Active composition
Medical applications
Epiglue Topical Skin Adhesive contains n-Butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (0.25ml) as its active ingredient and is indicated for the closure of superficial skin wounds and lacerations. This medical-grade adhesive provides an effective alternative to traditional suturing by rapidly bonding the edges of the skin, promoting hemostasis and facilitating wound healing while minimizing scar formation.
Upon application, Epiglue polymerizes in the presence of moisture, forming a strong, flexible film that acts as a protective barrier against microbial contamination and external irritants. It is particularly useful for small, clean, and straight lacerations or incisions where tension is minimal. The product is intended for external use only and should not be applied to mucous membranes, deep wounds, puncture wounds, or infected skin.
Epiglue is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to cyanoacrylates or any component of the formulation. Proper wound preparation, including cleaning and drying, is essential before application to ensure optimal adhesion. Adverse reactions are rare but may include localized irritation, allergic dermatitis, or delayed wound healing. Epiglue Topical Skin Adhesive offers a convenient, painless, and efficient method for wound closure in clinical and emergency settings.
