Hyalo4 CONTROL Antibacterial Spray 50ml with Hyaluronic Acid

Hyalo4 CONTROL Spray is a spray powder made in Italy by Fidia Farmaceutici. It combines hyaluronic acid with metallic silver and is applied to wounds that are uninfected or at risk of infection.

The hyaluronic acid supports the diffusion of water soluble molecules and cell migration at the wound site. The metallic silver prevents microbial contamination of the preparation itself and helps keep the wound free from exogenous bacteria. Both are carried in an absorbent matrix of light kaolin and silica dioxide, which takes up exudate while holding the active components in contact with the wound.

Because it is applied as a spray rather than spread by hand, there is no contact with the wound bed during application. That makes it a practical option for wounds that are painful to touch, awkward to reach, or spread across an irregular surface.

Indications

Hyalo4 CONTROL Spray is indicated for the local, temporary treatment of acute and chronic wounds that are uninfected or at risk of infection, including:

• Abrasions and grazes
• Clefts and cuts
• Small surgical wounds
• Local first and second degree burns

It is also used to establish a moist environment protected against additional exogenous bacterial infection.

How to use

1. Clean the wound before applying.
2. Hold the canister a short distance from the wound and spray an even layer of powder across the surface.
3. Cover with a secondary dressing if required.
4. Repeat as directed by the treating clinician.

Specifications

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between the CONTROL Spray and the CONTROL Cream?

The spray contains metallic silver and is intended for wounds that are uninfected or at risk of infection. The cream contains silver sulfadiazine and is indicated for wounds that are already infected. The spray also applies without touching the wound, which suits painful or awkwardly placed wounds.

Why a powder rather than a cream?

The kaolin and silica matrix absorbs exudate while holding the hyaluronic acid and silver against the wound. It suits wounds that are producing fluid, and it can be applied without spreading anything across a sensitive surface.

Can it be used on burns?

It is indicated for local first and second degree burns. Larger or deeper burns need clinical assessment rather than self-treatment.

Can it be used under a dressing?

Yes. Apply the powder first, then cover with a secondary dressing if one is required.

Where does it sit in the Hyalo4 range?

Hyalo4 START prepares the wound bed, Hyalo4 SKIN supports repair with hyaluronic acid alone, and the two CONTROL products add silver where contamination or infection is the concern.

Always read the label and use as directed. Use under the guidance of a healthcare professional. If symptoms persist or worsen, seek clinical advice.
