Calgonate® Calcium Gluoconate Gel
What is Calgonate® Gel?
Calgonate® Gel is an effective topical 2.5% calcium gluconate gel that is used in first aid response to hydrofluoric acid (HF) exposure or contact to the body. Calcium gluconate combines with hydrofluoric acid to neutralize the powerful fluoride ion.
Pharmacology
Calgonate® Gel contains Calcium Gluconate USP 2.5% w/w in a clear, viscous, colorless and odorless water miscible gel base.
Calgonate® – The Solution of Choice
“Calcium gluconate is the preferred treatment of choice for minor HF exposure for the following reasons:
- It is easy to use.
- It can be self-administered or applied by personnel trained in first aid care.
- It can be applied immediately as soon as the burn is suspected.
- It is painless to apply.
- It produces no risk of increasing tension in the tissues…
- …It reduces the risk of hypocalcemia.
- No sophisticated equipment is necessary.”
