Vetoquinol Aluspray AWD is a protective aluminium aerosol spray for veterinary wound care that forms a fine, breathable micronised aluminium film over the wound surface, acting as an aerosol bandage that shields the site from dust, dirt, moisture, and flies while healing progresses underneath. The formulation combines three topical antibacterials — Neomycin Sulphate, Polymyxin B Sulphate, and Bacitracin Zinc — giving broad antibacterial cover against Gram-positive and Gram-negative wound pathogens. Aluspray AWD is indicated for all types of open wounds in animals, including surgical wounds, infected wounds, biological wounds, and maggoted wounds. Suitable for dogs, cats, and large animals. Available in a 75ml aerosol can.
