Pre-lubricated catheters usually do not need separate lubricating jelly because lubricant is already included on or with the catheter. They are designed to help reduce friction during catheter use as packaged.
Product designs can vary by catheter type, lubrication method, packaging, and manufacturer instructions. This is different from some uncoated intermittent catheters, which may require separate catheter lubricant or sterile lubricating jelly before use.
