Coloplast InterDry is a moisture-wicking fabric with antimicrobial silver that protects irritated skin in skin folds by keeping the area dry and reducing odor. It can be used for up to 5 days and is easy to apply and remove. InterDry is suitable for use on children and adults and can be used in conjunction with other skin care products.

Leave at least 2 inches of the fabric

exposed outside the skin fold.

Secure the fabric in one of several

ways: with the skin fold, with a small

amount of skin-friendly tape, or

tuckedunderclothing.

Remove the fabric before bathing

and reuse it when ﬁnished. When

removing, gently separate the skin

foldand lift away.

InterDry moisture-wicking fabric with antimicrobial silver protects red,

irritated skin in and around skin folds by keeping the area dry and

reducing colonization in the fabric.

InterDry can be written on with

a ballpoint pen. It may be helpful

to label InterDry with the date

it was placed on the patient,

or follow your facility’s protocols.

Each piece of InterDry may be used up to

5days, depending on fabric soiling, odor,

amount of moisture and general skin

condition. Replace InterDry if it becomes

soiled with blood, urine orstool.

Do not use creams, ointments

or powders with InterDry as it may

interfere with product efﬁcacy.

Helpful hints

InterDry® is a skin protectant for the management of skin folds and other skin-to-skin contact areas. It reduces microbial colonization in the fabric. This single use fabric provides moisture transportation to keep skin dry while the

antimicrobial in the fabric reduces odor. The safe use of InterDry fabric during pregnancy, lactation and on children has not been demonstrated. Although many patients beneﬁt from the use of this device, results may vary. See

the device labeling for detailed information including the indication, contraindications, warnings, precautions, and potential complications/adverse events. For further questions, call Coloplast Corp. at 1-800-533-0464 and/or

Wash skin gently. Pat dry, do not rub.

With clean scissors, cut enough fabric

to cover the affected area, allowing for

a minimum of 2 inches to extend beyond

the skin fold for moisture evaporation.

Lay a single layer of fabric in the skin

fold, placing one edge into the base of

the fold. Gently smooth the rest of the

fabric over the skin, keeping it flat.
