Frequently asked questions

Does this gel help clean the wound?

Yes. The high osmolarity of the Active Leptospermum Honey works to cleanse the wound bed and promote autolytic debridement, creating an ideal environment for healing.

Is this product suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, this formula is not made with natural rubber latex, making it a safer option for those with latex sensitivities. It is a sterile, medical-grade formulation designed for professional use.

Can this be used on diabetic foot ulcers?

Absolutely. MEDIHONEY is highly versatile and specifically indicated for several conditions, including:

  • Diabetic foot ulcers
  • Venous stasis and arterial ulcers
  • Pressure sores
  • 1st and 2nd-degree burns
How does this promote faster healing?

The gel facilitates healing by maintaining a moist environment and lowering the wound’s pH level. This acidic environment is clinically beneficial for the progression of both chronic and acute wound care.

Is this honey natural and safe?

The dressing is composed of 80% Active Leptospermum Honey combined with 20% natural gelling agents. It is a sterile, clinical-grade product intended for medical application under professional supervision.

What should I use alongside this gel?

Because MEDIHONEY is a primary dressing, it should be paired with a secondary dressing that is appropriate for the level of exudate (fluid) produced by your specific wound.

Is this product eligible for FSA spending?

Yes, this medical-grade wound dressing is FSA eligible, allowing you to use your flexible spending account funds for your wound care needs.

Can I use one tube for multiple applications?

No. The product is strictly for single use only. Each sterile tube is intended to ensure maximum hygiene and prevent cross-contamination during treatment.

What is the primary benefit of the honey formulation?

The primary benefit is its ability to create a consistent, moist healing environment while actively assisting in debridement and pH regulation, which are critical steps for managing complex wounds.

Should I consult a doctor before using this?

Yes. While this is a high-quality clinical product, it is recommended that you always follow the guidance of a healthcare professional regarding application frequency and specific wound management protocols.
