Frequently asked questions
Does this product help with the full healing process?
Yes, MEDIHONEY is clinically proven to support wounds from the initial onset all the way through to full closure. It is engineered to maintain its effectiveness throughout every phase of the healing cycle.
Is this dressing effective for difficult or tunneled wounds?
Absolutely. The paste consistency is specifically designed for versatility, making it ideal for:
- Tunneled wounds
- Undermined wounds
- Sinus tracts
It allows for precise application in complex, hard-to-reach areas.
How does this honey promote a better healing environment?
The dressing creates an optimal environment through several biological mechanisms:
- High Osmolarity: Facilitates natural cleansing and debridement of the wound bed.
- pH Modulation: Helps lower the local wound pH, which is conducive to healing.
- Moisture Balance: Maintains a moist environment, which is clinically preferred for wound recovery.
Is this honey different from standard food-grade honey?
Yes. This is a medical-grade formulation derived from the nectar and pollen of the Leptospermum species of plants. Unlike regular honey, it is specifically engineered to remain effective even when exposed to wound fluid.
Is this product suitable for those with latex allergies?
Yes, the product is not made with natural rubber latex, making it a safer option for patients with latex sensitivities.
Is this product eligible for FSA spending?
Yes, this medical-grade wound dressing is FSA eligible.
Can I use the same tube for multiple applications?
No, this dressing is intended for single use only to ensure sterility and prevent cross-contamination of the wound site.
What is the concentration of the Leptospermum honey?
This product features 100% strength Leptospermum honey, ensuring high-potency medical-grade treatment for your wound care needs.
Is it easy to apply the paste correctly?
The paste is packaged in a convenient squeeze tube, which is designed for controlled, easy application directly into the wound bed or complex sinus tracts.
Why is high osmolarity beneficial for wound care?
High osmolarity is a key feature that helps cleanse and debride the wound. By creating an osmotic gradient, it draws moisture and debris away from the wound bed, supporting a cleaner environment for tissue regeneration.
