Latex gloves are the most common and most used by health professionals, because they are easy to put on, and adapt well to the hands and have a generally lower cost. However, this type of glove can cause allergies triggered or aggravated by the use of powder (talc) or absorbable powder for the lubrication of gloves.
This usually happens when alcohol-based solutions are used for hand hygiene after the use of powdered gloves. These products can interact with residual powder and cause a feeling of sand in the hands, dryness and irritation.
To avoid allergic reactions, the ideal is to properly sanitize the hands with soap and water after the use of any type of procedure glove, and only after that alcohol is used. On the other hand, professionals who present any type of allergic reaction after the use of gloves with powder, it is recommended to suspend this material, and exchange them for antiallergic gloves, such as nitril gloves, for example.
