I was told by a surgeon that the interceed works well in the abdomen but not in the pelvic area. I went to Europe and had the Spray Gel but it didn't work out for me.

>From what I've researched, it seems as if Intergel
has been pulled off the market, Interceed is only effective if you can target the exact location of adhesion formation, and Spray Gel is being used in Europe but is under clinical trial here in the US. Does anyone have any more info. on effective barriers that are currently being used?
