Details
MediHoney Calcium Alginate Dressing is made by Derma Sciences from patented formulations and medical grade honey (Manuka). It is used for moderately to heavily exudating wounds or burn wounds. The products contain 95% active Leptospermum Honey, which has been shown to have several properties which assist in promoting an optimal healing environment for chronic wounds and burns that have not progressed with basic, first line treatments. Through their high osmolarity, the Calcium Alginate Rope and Dressing helps to cleanse the wound and remove devitalized tissue. The MediHoney Dressings are designed to manage varying degrees of exudate. This effective wound dressing can be used in all stages of wound healing and can also be used as an important component of wound bed preparation.

- Can be used in all stages of wound healing.
- Helps to lower overall wound pH.

Product Questions
What is the recommended time that a dressing can remain in place before changing? Should it be changed daily or can it remain in place for a longer period of time, especially for a wound that has very little exudate?What product can I use as an appropriate secondary dressing with medihoney wound & burn dressing?

Love Medihoney
The Medihoney was started on my father's compression ulcers on his heels while he was in the VA hospital. When their system was unable to continue supplying us at home, we open purchased it from you because we love what it has done for him. He was healing very slow until the Medihoney was started. He is still healing and we will continue utilizing it for our personal use as well. Thank you.
- Easy to use and highly effective

good stuff!!
we used the paste on a mole removal site for my grown daughter. it had been VERY SLOW TO HEAL and had become infected so the doctors put her on a regimen of antibiotics. We started this Medi-Honey the same day as the antibiotics. In 24 hours this stuff had stopped that infection and started to heal the wound. It certainly worked for her.
- it works

Please Use Caution
I tried using this product for 2 days for non-healing stage I wound and it has made things so much worse! I would use this with caution and only under a doctor's supervision.

Outstanding healing for difficult wound
Cancer patient with wound at edge of hole in skull following removal of plate. Unable to replace plate due to recurrent infections, so the Medihoney is healing the small wound at a jagged point that could possibly break through and allow infection to enter.
