No. These are different kinds of product from different companies. UlcerMagic is a liquid, applied once to each ulcer with a swab and followed by a rinse. Aftacure Gel is a gel whose ingredients include PVP, taurine and zinc gluconate. The cautions differ as well: the UlcerMagic pack warns against use with a sulphur allergy, while the Aftacure box warns against use with an allergy to any of its ingredients.

How to read this table
- Each cell puts into plain words what is printed on that product's pack. For UlcerMagic, we used its own pack; for Aftacure Gel, photos of the pack sold in Jordan.
- Each product has its own directions. Follow the ones on the pack you are using, never those of the other product.
- The photos of the Aftacure pack do not show its directions or its wording on age and pregnancy, so the table does not include them. Read its leaflet before use.
The table shows no strengths or costs, and it passes no judgment on either product.
