Introducing HydraBalance™ Lubricating Technology

The Promise of the Unique Lubricating Technology From Hollister


The combination of hydrophilic coating and hydration fluid creates a smoothly gliding cushion when in contact with the urethra.7 It's cushioned and longer8 lasting lubricity helps protect the urethra from potential microtrauma and Urinary Tract Infections.9
The enhanced hydration fluid contains naturally sourced ingredients.10
Contains Glycerol, which is produced naturally by the body and provides osmotic water balance in the urethra during catheterising.11, 12, 13, 14

 

"The addition of HydraBalance™ lubricating technology to VaPro catheters has had a big impact on my overall quality of life. Because catheterizing is now so easy, comfortable, and almost frictionless, I'm more likely to do it regularly, which means I stay properly hydrated and significantly reduce my risk of UTIs."
