First, ensure the skin is clean, dry, and free from oils or lotions. Tear off the desired length of tape (it tears easily in both directions). Apply the tape directly over the dressing or device, gently pressing it onto the skin. Do not stretch the tape excessively, as this may cause tension blisters. To remove, slowly peel the tape back in the direction of hair growth, supporting the skin with your other hand. The silicone adhesive releases without pain, leaving no sticky residue. For best results, change the tape as needed, typically every 2-3 days depending on the clinical situation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho It Is For\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMepitac is ideal for healthcare professionals, caregivers, and individuals with fragile or sensitive skin.
