Hydrophilic intermittent catheters are specially designed to ensure a smooth and comfortable catheterization experience. These advanced catheters feature a hydrophilic coating that becomes lubricated upon exposure to water, significantly reducing friction and lowering the risk of urethral irritation. Suitable for both short-term and long-term use, these catheters are a trusted choice for individuals managing bladder conditions requiring intermittent self-catheterization.
Leading brands such as Coloplast, Hollister, Cure Medical, and Wellspect Healthcare offer a wide variety of hydrophilic catheters tailored to meet diverse needs, ensuring reliability, safety, and comfort.

- Ease of Use: Pre-lubricated or easily activated with water, eliminating the need for separate lubricants.
