Use Suggestion:
For optimal results, it is recommended to prepare the catheter by soaking it in sterile water for a few minutes before use. This activates the hydrophilic coating, ensuring maximum lubrication. When inserting the catheter, use a gentle, steady motion to navigate through the urinary tract, and always follow the latest guidelines for catheterization to ensure patient safety and comfort. After use, dispose of the catheter according to local regulations to maintain a sterile environment.
