Lubricating Gels
The Lubricating Jelly collection from Arcus Medical offers a crucial yet often overlooked element of successful urinary device use: comfort and ease. Whether you’re applying catheters, receptacles, or other medical equipment, using a high-quality lubricant can make the process smoother, reduce friction, and protect sensitive skin from irritation or micro-tears. This collection features trusted products like MediChoice Lubricating Jelly and Surgilube Sterile Lubricating Jelly, both well-known in the healthcare field for their reliability, safety, and performance.
While it may seem like a small detail, the right lubricating jelly can significantly improve your daily experience. Poor-quality or improper lubrication can lead to discomfort, skin damage, or even device malfunction — outcomes that no user wants to face. By selecting a carefully formulated, sterile, water-soluble jelly, you ensure that your medical routines remain as comfortable and hygienic as possible.
Key benefits of the Lubricating Jelly collection:

Protects sensitive skin: Helps prevent irritation, redness, or skin breakdown, especially important for those using devices daily or with delicate skin.
-
Supports hygienic use: Sterile, water-based formulas reduce the risk of introducing bacteria, helping maintain a clean, safe process.
-
Easy to apply and clean: These jellies are designed to spread easily and wipe away cleanly, without leaving sticky or greasy residue.
-
Compatible with medical devices: Safe for use with latex, rubber, and plastic components commonly used in urological and incontinence systems.
Arcus Medical offers two standout lubricating jelly products in this collection:
-
MediChoice Lubricating Jelly — Known for its smooth texture, MediChoice jelly is water-soluble, sterile, and ideal for routine application of urinary devices. It’s designed to be gentle on the skin while providing the glide needed for comfortable device use.
-
Surgilube Sterile Lubricating Jelly — Surgilube has been trusted by healthcare professionals for decades. It is sterile, water-based, and formulated to offer long-lasting lubrication while minimizing irritation, making it a top choice for sensitive applications.
Who can benefit from using lubricating jelly?
-
Men using external catheters or incontinence receptacles as part of a daily routine.
-
Individuals or caregivers managing intermittent catheterization.
-
Anyone needing gentle, skin-safe lubrication for inserting or applying medical devices.
-
Users who want to prevent discomfort, irritation, or friction-related issues.
An added advantage of these jellies is their sterile, water-based formulation, which ensures they won’t degrade the materials in your devices. This is particularly important because certain oil-based or non-sterile products can damage medical equipment or increase the risk of infections. Both MediChoice and Surgilube are designed specifically for medical use, giving you confidence in their safety and performance.
