  • Venous leg ulcers
  • Diabetic foot ulcers

  • Acute and hard-to-heal chronic wounds
  • Infected wounds or wounds at risk of infection
  • Moderate to heavily exuding wounds of all types

How Aquacel Ag Extra / Ag Advantage Works

Standard wound dressings manage either exudate or infection — rarely both, and rarely at the clinical level that moderate to heavily exuding infected wounds demand. Aquacel Ag Extra addresses both simultaneously through two technologies working in tandem. The dual-layer Hydrofiber® matrix absorbs wound fluid on contact, gels into a cohesive sheet that micro-contours to the wound bed, locks exudate and bacteria inside the dressing where they can't spread, and maintains the moist environment the wound needs to heal. At the same time, the ionic silver activates within 30 minutes — killing a broad spectrum of wound pathogens in the dressing and sustaining that activity for up to 14 days without needing to be recharged.

  • Dual-layer Hydrofiber® rapidly absorbs moderate to heavy wound exudate
  • Gels on contact — forms a cohesive soft gel that micro-contours to the wound bed, eliminating dead space where bacteria can grow
  • Locks exudate and bacteria inside the dressing — prevents lateral spread and cross-contamination
  • 9x stronger than original Aquacel Ag — maintains structural integrity under heavy exudate load
  • 50% more absorbent than original Aquacel Ag — handles significantly higher drainage volume
  • Ionic silver activates within 30 minutes of contact with wound fluid
  • Sustained antimicrobial activity for up to 14 days — kills MRSA, VRE, and a broad spectrum of wound pathogens
  • Controlled release of ionic silver as exudate is absorbed — delivers silver where bacteria are
  • Maintains moist wound environment — reduces pain associated with dressing changes
  • Documented in 100+ published papers including 23 randomized controlled trials

Choosing the Right Size

  • 2" x 2" (420675 / 422297) — Small wounds, post-surgical sites, diabetic toe wounds, and compact pressure ulcers
  • 4" x 5" (420676 / 422299) — Most versatile size for standard pressure ulcers, venous ulcers, diabetic foot wounds, and surgical wounds with moderate to heavy drainage
  • 6" x 6" (420678 / 422298) — Larger pressure ulcers, venous leg ulcers, burns, and wounds requiring broader silver-hydrofiber coverage
  • 8" x 12" (422302) — Large wounds, extensive leg ulcers, burns, and abdominal wounds with heavy exudate requiring maximum coverage

Aquacel Ag Extra vs. Aquacel Ag (Standard) — What's the Difference?

  • Aquacel Ag Extra / Ag Advantage (this product) — Dual-layer construction, 9x stronger, 50% more absorbent. For moderate to heavily exuding wounds where standard Aquacel Ag would saturate too quickly or lack the structural integrity needed
  • Aquacel Ag (standard) — Single-layer Hydrofiber® with ionic silver. For light to moderately exuding infected or at-risk wounds where the extra absorbency of the dual-layer version is not required

Great for aggressive chewers
Color: Dogwood (Brown), Size: Large (Pack of 1)
My dog is an aggressive chewer so they are great for her. I would love to have one a bit thinner so it could fit in a holder so it is easier for her to hold while eating. This keeps her busy and is long lasting. I have purchased these multiple times.

Durable and a favorite toy
My 7 month old Black Lab loves this bone. She is a chewer and has gone to town on the three ends. They are roughed up a bit but holding up better than expected. Highly recommend for dogs that love to chew.

Perfect for aggressive chewers
I have a 2 year old pittie and she chows thru bones in minutes, even those reviewed as "long lasting". This thing is still going strong after 9 months. She was not initially interested, had to spread peanut butter on one end, one time, and now it is her go-to chew toy. Looks a little mangled after all this time but she's not even 75% thru it. Highly recommend, no stomach issues.

Best long-lasting dog chew
If you want something to occupy your dog that's harmless, this is the one. He doesn't have to chase it, so it doesn't get lost under the cabinets, and he's been chewing it for hours and barely made a mark on it. When he's chewing on this, he's not whining or asking to sit on my lap, and he can stay nearby as he enjoys this toy.
