• Ideal suture for use in sub cuticular closure

• Excellent handling and smooth tie down

RACAPRONE suture is indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and ligation, including the use in ophthalmic procedures.

RACAPRONE is not for use in cardiovascular or neurological tissues.

RACAPRONE suture, being absorbable, should not be used where extended approximation of tissue is required.
