2. Q

   Question: what is the best way to apply the dressing on a diabetic ulcer on the toe, and how often should the dressing be changed.

     Answer: Thank you for contacting customer care service. 1. Remove ACTICOAT from the package and moisten the dressing with sterile water (do not use saline). Wring out excess water prior to applying.
     2. Cut to appropriate size and shape.
     3. Apply the dressing to the wound.
     4. Keep the dressing humid. Change the dressing depending on the amount of exudate and the condition of the wound. Secure with an appropriate secondary dressing.
     The antimicrobial barrier remains effective for up to 3 days for ACTICOAT and 7 days for ACTICOAT 7 increasing convenience for the patient and caregiver
