Urgostart Foam Pad 1s

Urgostart Foam Pad 1s contains TLC-NOSF (Technology Lipido-Colloid with Nano-Oligosaccharide Factor) and is presented as a healthcare product.

It is classified as an over-the-counter (OTC) medicine, so no prescription is needed to order it. Under Malaysian rules for medicine information, this page carries product, safety and handling information only.

You can consult a doctor or pharmacist online on DoctorOnCall about this product before or after you order. Every order is checked by a registered pharmacist before it is delivered. Always read the label and the leaflet supplied with the pack.

Wash and dry your hands before opening the pack. Clean and dry the wound as directed by your healthcare provider before applying the dressing. Open the pouch and remove the pad without touching the wound-contact surface, then place it directly over the wound so that the pad extends slightly beyond the wound edges. Because this format has no adhesive border, secure it in place using a secondary dressing such as a retention bandage, tubular bandage, tape applied to intact surrounding skin, or a compression bandage system if one has been prescribed. Follow the dressing-change interval recommended by your healthcare provider, or the pack instructions, which will depend on how much fluid the wound is producing. When changing the dressing, remove the secondary fixation first, then lift the pad gently from one edge rather than pulling it straight off the wound.

Not applicable — Urgostart Foam Pad is a medical device dressing, not a medicine, and does not have a dose. Pad size and change frequency should follow the guidance of the healthcare professional managing the wound.

Shelf life can vary by manufacturing batch. Always check the expiry date printed on the individual pouch and the outer carton before using the dressing.

Store at room temperature in the original sealed pouch, away from direct sunlight and excessive heat or moisture. Do not use a dressing whose pouch has been opened, broken, or damaged.

• Common: Mild irritation or itching of the skin in contact with the secondary fixation material (tape, bandage) rather than the pad itself.
• Common: Temporary softening (maceration) of surrounding skin if fluid output exceeds what the pad and change frequency can manage.
• Serious: Signs of an allergic contact reaction, such as spreading redness or blistering beyond the dressing area, which should be assessed by a healthcare professional.

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

• Not applicable — Urgostart Foam Pad is a topical wound dressing and is not known to interact with medicines or food.

• Check the expiry date on the pouch before opening it.
• Choose a pad size that extends slightly beyond the wound edges before applying the secondary dressing.
• Avoid touching the wound-contact surface of the pad while applying it.
• Make sure the secondary fixation is not applied too tightly, especially if a compression bandage is also being used.
• Remove the secondary fixation first before lifting the pad when changing the dressing.
• Keep enough pads and secondary fixation material on hand so the change schedule is not disrupted.

Precautions: Urgostart Foam Pad is usually selected as part of professional wound-care management, often in combination with a separately prescribed secondary dressing or compression system; if using independently, ensure the secondary fixation does not compress the area too tightly. It has not been established as suitable for infants or young children without professional guidance. Do not cut or trim the pad itself, as this can expose the foam core.

When to See a Doctor or Pharmacist: Seek advice if the wound becomes increasingly red, swollen, warm, malodorous, or produces more discharge than before, if you develop a fever, if the skin around the wound becomes painful or blistered, or if the wound shows no change over the period recommended by your healthcare provider.
