Septiplast Crepe Bandage is a lightweight bandage that is normally used to offer heat, insulation and support in many medical situations. It is made up of superior quality pharmacopoeia grade fabric.

| SIDE EFFECTS: | Swelling may come if wrapped tightly. In summer some prickly heat may develop at the site of usage |
| DOSAGE/DIRECTIONS FOR USE: | Make sure the person is comfortable & keep the injured part of the body supported, in the position as it will be in, when the bandage is on. Make sure to use the right size bandage; different parts of the body need different widths of bandage. Start working from the side of the injury and do not apply directly at the injury site, work up the limb or injury site by winding the bandage in limb areas such as forearm or calf in spiralling turns, making sure that each new layer covers one-third to two-thirds of the previous one. Finish by wrapping the bandage around the injury site once more and securing the end. When applying bandages to elbows and knees (to hold dressings in place or support sprains or strains) flex the joint slightly, apply the bandage in a figure of eight and extend the bandage far on each side of the joint. Ensure that the areas above and below the injury are covered. Septiplast Crepe Bandage is rolled up with one or two elasticized claw grips (depending on the width) for securing, without the need for sticky tape & pins. The bandage layers must permit for easy movement of limbs and should be able to expand in case of swelling and inflammation. |
