Description

OptiLube sterile lubricating jelly is a medical device, developed to aid the smooth insertion of medical devices during a range of examinations and procedures.

OptiLube is water-soluble, transparent, and formulated to adhere well to gloves and instruments.

The use of sterile lubricating jelly during procedures and examinations reduces the risk of pain and trauma to the patient, by reducing resistance of the equipment as it is inserted.

Frequently Asked Questions

 

What is optilube used for? ▼

Optilube gel is a way to ease the insertion of medical devices such as catheters, endoscopes, and rectal thermometers. It can also be used for gynaecological examinations and other procedures that need lubrication to ease patient discomfort. ​

Is optilube safe for use on human tissue? ▼

Optilube sterile lubricating jelly is made to be extremely gentle on human tissue. It is water-soluble, pH-balanced, and contains no greases, which makes sure it will not damage any tissue, as well as rubber, or metal instruments.

Can optilube be used during catheterisation? ▼

Optilube is very commonly used in catheterisation procedures to lubricate the catheter, making a much smoother insertion and reducing the risk of any trauma or discomfort for the patient. ​

How should OptiLube be stored? ▼

It is highly advised to store optilube gel in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Make sure before storing that the cap is securely closed after use to maintain sterility. OptiLube tubes are sterile and should remain sterile until opened. Once an optilube gel is opened, they should be used within 3 months.

Can optilube be used for personal applications? ▼

Optilube gel is more than suitable for personal use, for example easing the insertion of tampons or rectal thermometers.

Are there single-use options available for OptiLube? ▼

Yes, we also sell sterile, single-use lube sachets of optilube gel. These optilube sachets are designed for medical procedures that require a much smaller amount of lubrication.
