An adhesive surgical dressing which comprises a backing material provided on one side with a composition comprising per 100 parts, by weight, of a non-biodegradable, tacky, polymeric binding agent, from 12 to 25 parts, by weight, of an inert reinforcing filler and a coating on at least the intended skin contacting face of the dressing of a non-biodegradable, water-activated adhesive/thickner, the composition having an aqueous swell value of from 5 to 40% and a cold flow value of from 50 to 90%, is disclosed. An adhesive surgical dressing composition which comprises per 100 parts, by weight, of a non-biodegradable, tacky, polymeric binding agent, from 5 to 150 parts, by weight, of a non-biodegradable, water-activated adhesive/thickner and from 12 to 25 parts, by weight, of an inert reinforcing filler, is also disclosed. The adhesive material obviates certain disadvantages of known materials in that it adheres satisfactorily to moist surfaces, it absorbs moisture and maintains its adhesion and is physiologically acceptable.
