Frequently asked questions
Is the activation process convenient for travel?
Yes, it is highly portable. The LoFric Primo features an integrated sterile water packet, allowing you to activate the hydrophilic coating anywhere without needing to carry separate water or lubricants. Simply fold and squeeze the packet to prepare the catheter.
Does this catheter help minimize discomfort during use?
The catheter is engineered with Urotonic Surface Technology. This specialized hydrophilic coating creates an exceptionally slippery surface, which helps significantly reduce friction during both insertion and removal, promoting greater comfort and protecting the urethra.
How does the Coude tip assist with insertion?
The Coude tip is specifically curved and angled. This design is highly beneficial for male urethral anatomy, as it assists in navigating around potential obstructions or difficult passages more effectively than a standard straight tip.
Is the material safe for those with latex allergies?
Absolutely. The LoFric Primo is not made with natural rubber latex, making it a safer option for individuals who have latex sensitivities or allergies.
What is the purpose of the staggered eyelets?
The catheter features two smooth, staggered eyelets. These are precision-finished to ensure a smooth flow of urine while maintaining maximum comfort and minimizing the risk of irritation to the delicate tissue of the urethra.
Is this a single-use product?
Yes, for safety and hygiene, the LoFric Primo is designed as a sterile, disposable, single-use catheter. You should dispose of it properly after each use.
What is the standard sizing for this model?
This specific model comes in a 16 Fr. size with a 16-inch length, which is a standard configuration for male intermittent catheterization.
How can I easily identify the size of the catheter?
The product follows industry-standard color coding. This specific 16 Fr. version is marked with the color orange for quick and easy size identification.
Is the coating durable during the catheterization process?
The Urotonic coating is designed for performance. Once activated by the internal water packet, it remains consistently slippery, providing a stable, low-friction surface throughout the entire process, which helps in preventing trauma.
Is this catheter suitable for someone on the go?
Yes, it is an excellent choice for active users. Its compact, self-contained design eliminates the need for extra supplies, making it highly discreet and convenient for use in travel, work, or social settings where access to water sources may be limited.
