Can I use these for mixing medications?

Absolutely. Because they are made from an odorless and tasteless material, they are ideal for clinical tasks beyond oral exams, including precise stirring and mixing of liquid or semi-solid medications.

Are they individually wrapped?

Each tongue depressor measures 5-1/2 inches in length, providing a standard size for convenient handling and effective reach during clinical examinations.

How should I store them?

To ensure the wood maintains its integrity and remains in optimal condition, it is recommended to store the depressors in a cool, dry place.
