Re: g-tube feeding, mic-key NOW BLEEDING

[Guest guest]

hi anne,

the cream we use for granulation is: triamcinolone acetonide cream

USP, 0.5%...........and it is by prescription.

also, my daughters gtube was changed to a bigger (longer) size, the

gi thought the other was too tight, causing skin irritations. i

also keep a spilt gauze on it most of the time and that seems to

help with the soreness/granulation problems.

hope this helps!
