UlceRx Therapy Solution Kit
Proven Superior Treatment Choice for the Successful Healing of Venous Ulcers

Designed with Patients in Mind

This dual-stocking system consists of a low-compression underliner and a 30-40 mmHg overstocking. The underliner keeps your dressing in place at night, helping you to rest comfortably. Its smooth exterior also aids in the donning of the overstocking. During your daily activities, the overstocking provides the necessary compression to heal your venous ulcer.
