1. What is NORUXOL and what is it used for
Noruxol ointment contains collagenase N, consisting of Clostridiopeptidase A (collagenase enzyme) and associated proteases
. These enzymes are used for the treatment of wounds because they are able to remove
(debride) dry or moist scabs or eschars (necrotic, fibrinous tissue) normally present on wounds,
leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers, burns.
By removing scabs and eschars, Noruxol accelerates cicatrization and the healing process.
Consult your doctor if you do not feel better or if you feel worse after 14 days.
2. What you need to know before using NORUXOL
Do not use Noruxol

Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using Noruxol if:
- you have been told that there is infection in the wound
- you are diabetic and have been told you have a wound or dry gangrene; in this case, moisten the wound before applying Noruxol, being careful not to make it excessively wet
- you have a severe burn; in this case, you must use Noruxol as directed and under the supervision of a specialist doctor.
The use, especially if prolonged, of products for topical use (on the skin), can cause sensitization reactions; in this case, stop treatment and consult your doctor or pharmacist.

To ensure the effect of the treatment, apply Noruxol to the moist wound.
- If the wound is dry or becomes dry, moisten it with saline solution (0.9% NaCl) or other solutions (e.g. glucose) before applying the ointment.
- Dry, hard scabs can be softened by applying a moist dressing, gauze or bandage.
Apply a thin layer of Noruxol (approximately 2 mm) directly to the wound or with a dressing to be
then applied to the wound.
Ensure that the ointment is in close contact with the wound and cover it with a dressing.
Apply the ointment once a day, unless otherwise advised by your doctor; however, it is possible to apply it
twice a day if a greater cleansing effect of the wound is necessary. Before reapplying
the product, make sure to remove any detached (necrotic) dead tissue.
