Urgostart Border 1s

Urgostart Border 1s is a healthcare product with TLC-NOSF (Technology Lipido-Colloid with Nano-Oligosaccharide Factor), Absorbent foam pad and Silicone adhesive borders declared as its active content.

This is an over-the-counter (OTC) product and can be purchased without a prescription. Only product, safety and handling details are published on this page.

An online consultation with a DoctorOnCall doctor or pharmacist is available for this product, and a registered pharmacist reviews each order before dispatch to Malaysia or Singapore. Follow the directions on the label and on the leaflet inside the pack.

Wash and dry your hands before opening the pack. Clean and dry the wound area as directed by your healthcare provider, or according to standard wound-cleansing practice, before applying the dressing. Remove the dressing from its pouch and peel away the protective release film without touching the wound-contact surface. Position the pad directly over the wound so that the silicone border extends onto healthy, intact skin on all sides, then press the border down gently to secure it without stretching the skin. Urgostart Border can typically be left in place for several days depending on the amount of fluid the wound is producing; check the pack instructions or your healthcare provider’s advice for the specific change interval for your wound. To remove, lift one corner of the border slowly and peel it back parallel to the skin rather than pulling it straight up, to reduce discomfort and skin trauma.

Not applicable — Urgostart Border is a medical device dressing, not a medicine, and does not have a dose. Dressing size and how often it is changed should follow the guidance of the prescriber, nurse, or pharmacist managing the wound, or the instructions on the pack if the dressing is being used independently.

Store the dressing at room temperature in its original sealed pouch, away from direct sunlight and excessive heat or moisture, until it is ready to be used. Keep the outer carton closed when not retrieving a dressing, and do not use a dressing whose pouch seal has been broken or damaged.

• Common: Mild redness, itching, or a warm sensation on the skin under or around the adhesive border, which is usually related to the adhesive rather than the wound-contact layer.
• Common: Temporary skin maceration (softening) of the surrounding skin if the dressing is left in place for longer than the wound’s fluid output can be safely managed.
• Serious: Signs of a skin or contact allergy such as spreading redness, blistering, or significant itching beyond the dressing border, which should be assessed by a healthcare professional.

• Known hypersensitivity or allergy to any component of the dressing, including the silicone adhesive or the lipidocolloid matrix.
• Not for use on wounds where a healthcare professional has specifically advised against an occlusive or semi-occlusive dressing.

• Not applicable — Urgostart Border is a topical wound dressing and is not known to interact with orally or systemically administered medicines or food.

• Check the expiry date on the pouch before opening it, and do not use an expired dressing.
• Select a dressing size that allows the silicone border to sit on intact skin at least 1-2 cm beyond all wound edges.
• Avoid touching the wound-contact surface of the pad with your fingers while applying it.
• Peel the border back slowly and parallel to the skin when removing the dressing, rather than lifting it straight off.
• Keep a small supply of spare dressings on hand so a scheduled change is never delayed because of running out of stock.
• Note the date of each dressing change on the pack or in a log if the wound is being followed up by a healthcare provider.

Precautions: Urgostart Border is generally selected and applied as part of professional wound-care management for chronic wounds; if you are using it independently, follow the pack instructions carefully and stop use if irritation develops. It has not been established as suitable for infants or young children, and use in this age group should only be under professional guidance. Avoid applying the dressing over broken adhesive edges from a previous dressing, and do not cut or trim the dressing pad itself, as this can expose the foam core.

When to See a Doctor or Pharmacist: Seek advice if the wound shows increasing redness, swelling, warmth, odour, or discharge, if you develop a fever, if the surrounding skin becomes increasingly painful or blistered, or if the wound has not shown any change after the period of use recommended by your healthcare provider.
