Frequently asked questions

No, it does not. Each catheter features an integrated sterile water packet that you simply pop to activate the hydrophilic coating, making it perfect for use when you are away from home or a clean water source.
Is the material gentle during insertion?
Yes, it is designed for comfort. The catheter features an advanced hydrophilic coating (PVP and sodium chloride) that becomes extremely slippery when activated, which helps minimize friction and protects the delicate urethral mucosa during insertion and withdrawal.
Is this product suitable for users with latex allergies?
Yes, the LoFric Primo is not made with natural rubber latex, making it a safe choice for individuals with latex sensitivities.
Is this catheter designed for multiple uses?
No, this is a single-use, disposable device. It arrives sterile to ensure maximum hygiene; you should never attempt to reuse it.
Is the 18 Fr. size appropriate for me?
The 18 Fr. size is a standard clinical specification. If you are uncertain about whether this size is suitable for your specific medical needs, please consult with your healthcare provider or urologist, as they are the best resource for determining your required catheter French size.

The two smooth, staggered eyelets are specifically engineered to provide efficient and reliable drainage while maintaining patient comfort during the procedure.
