Your choices matter
What if using a catheter was only as challenging as taking a shower or brushing your teeth? It can be – if you insist on less.
Because with less friction,1,2 there’s less risk of harming your urethra1,2 and less risk of UTIs.1,3
All SpeediCath catheters feature Triple Action Coating Technology, helping it stay hydrated so insertion and withdrawal are smooth and gentle.
So, if life hands you a catheter, insist on less – because your choices matter.
