Healthpoint is pleased to announce that 30-gram tubes of Collagenase SANTYL® Ointment will once again be available to pharmacies nationwide on or about February 15, 2010.
Healthpoint understands that many prescribers who prefer the 30-gram size have been awaiting its return. We are grateful for the patience these prescribers have shown while we increased manufacturing capacity for SANTYL® Ointment to satisfy the surge in demand following the removal of papain-based debriding agents from the market. Our improvements are now complete, and, beginning February 15, healthcare providers may select 15-gram or 30-gram tubes of SANTYL® Ointment for their patients as appropriate.
Healthcare professionals are encouraged to prescribe SANTYL® Ointment in 30-gram increments for patients with wounds requiring more than 15-grams for treatment.
As always, sales representatives are available to answer questions and provide in-service education regarding SANTYL® Ointment. You may also call our Customer Care department for assistance at 1-800-441-8227.
Best wishes in the New Year.
Travis E. Baugh
President and Chief Operating Officer
