Synoplex® is supplied as a dry soluble powder, needing to be rehydrated with sterile water prior to use. Wear gloves during handling and use of Synoplex®. Determine the amount of Synoplex® powder needed to achieve the desired concentration for the intended use. Dissolve Synoplex® in a known volume of sterile water and mix well. Before applying rinse treatment, ensure that the lesion is properly debrided.
A general dose of Synoplex® for infected wounds is 500μg/mL and for non-infected wounds is 200μg/mL in a volume sufficient to moisten the affected area. The frequency of application should be 1-2 times per day until the lesion is resolved. Synoplex® should always be used in conjunction with good wound care consisting of initial debridement to remove all necrotic and/or infected tissue.
