Catrix Wound Dressing - A therapeutic weapon for chronic wounds

Approved by the FDA in 1998, Catrix Wound Dressing is a natural, biodegradable product, made from a specially processed bovine cartilage in the form of a fine white powder. Catrix has no chemical additives. When applied directly to non-healing wounds, such as debubitus ulcers (bedsores), diabetic ulcers, and venous ulcers, Catrix Wound Dressing actually accelerates the healing process, effectively closing the wounds while minimizing scarring.
