The gel formulation contains octenidine dihydrochloride as its active antimicrobial agent, achieving pathogen inactivation within 1 minute of application. It is indicated for antiseptic treatment of grazes, cuts, minor burns, and sunburn, with clinically demonstrated tissue compatibility and no impairment of granulation or epithelialisation.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSchulke Octenisept Gel is a ready-to-use, transparent antiseptic wound gel formulated with octenidine hydrochloride for rapid broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity at the wound site. Unlike conventional iodine-based or alcohol-based antiseptics, octenidine provides effective pathogen reduction without cytotoxic effects on granulation tissue or epithelial cells, making it suitable for use on acute wounds where healing must not be compromised.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gel consistency ensures prolonged contact time with the wound surface compared to liquid antiseptic solutions, while the aqueous base (purified water with propylene glycol and hydroxyethylcellulose) provides a moist wound environment conducive to physiological healing. Clinical studies and extensive post-market surveillance data spanning over two decades confirm the dermatological tolerability of octenidine, with no sensitisation potential and pain-free application even on sensitive wound margins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"8\" border=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSchulke and Mayr GmbH, Germany\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOctenisept Gel (wound antiseptic gel)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVolume\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20 ml tube\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eActive Ingredient\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOctenidine dihydrochloride (Octenidine HCl)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExcipients\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAqua purificata, Propylene Glycol, Hydroxyethylcellulose\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDynamic Viscosity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApprox. 5,050 mPa.s\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDensity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApprox. 1.01 g\/cm3 at 20 degrees Celsius\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOnset of Action\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePathogen inactivation within 1 minute (quantitative suspension test, high protein load)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAntimicrobial Spectrum\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, yeasts, fungi, enveloped viruses\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTissue Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNon-irritating, non-sensitising, no impairment of granulation or epithelialisation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSterility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNon-sterile topical preparation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegulatory\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCE marked Class IIa medical device under EU MDR 2017\/745; manufactured under ISO 13485 quality management system; HSA registered for distribution in Singapore\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackaging\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20 ml aluminium tube with applicator tip\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eClinical Indications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAntiseptic treatment of acute superficial wounds including abrasions, lacerations, and minor surgical wounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFirst-aid management of minor thermal burns (first-degree) and sunburn with compromised skin integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWound bed preparation and infection prophylaxis in minor traumatic injuries prior to dressing application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAntiseptic wound management in paediatric patients where pain-free application is clinically preferred\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePost-procedural antisepsis following minor dermatological procedures such as mole removal or skin biopsy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjunctive antiseptic care for skin donor sites and superficial graft recipient areas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What is the difference between Octenisept Gel and Octenisept Solution?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Octenisept Solution is a liquid antiseptic formulation containing both octenidine dihydrochloride and phenoxyethanol, designed primarily for mucous membrane and wound irrigation. Octenisept Gel contains octenidine in a hydroxyethylcellulose gel base, providing prolonged wound contact and a moist healing environment. The gel is more suitable for superficial wounds requiring sustained topical antisepsis without runoff.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is Octenisept Gel safe for use on children?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Yes. Octenidine-based preparations are widely used in paediatric wound care due to their pain-free application profile and absence of tissue toxicity. Unlike alcohol-based or iodine-based antiseptics, Octenisept Gel does not cause stinging on application, making it well-tolerated by children. Clinical guidelines from the European Wound Management Association (EWMA) reference octenidine as a suitable antiseptic for paediatric wound management.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How long should Octenisept Gel remain on the wound?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The gel achieves antimicrobial efficacy within 1 minute of application. It can be left on the wound surface under a dressing for sustained antiseptic effect. For open wound management, reapply as needed at dressing changes. The gel does not need to be rinsed off and is compatible with standard wound dressings including foam, alginate, and hydrofibre products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Does octenidine interfere with wound healing?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: No. Clinical evidence confirms that octenidine does not impair granulation tissue formation or epithelialisation. This is a key differentiator from older antiseptics such as chlorhexidine and povidone-iodine, which have demonstrated cytotoxic effects on fibroblasts at bactericidal concentrations. The non-cytotoxic profile of octenidine is documented in peer-reviewed studies and referenced in EWMA position documents on wound antisepsis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Where can I purchase Octenisept Gel in Singapore?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Octenisept Gel is available in Singapore through authorised medical supply distributors.
