Product Information

Medihoney Barrier cream containing active manuka antibacterial honey which helps to reduce inflammation, prevent maceration, excoriation and irritation resulting from effects of incontinence and diarrhoea. MEDIHONEY wound and burn dressing gel contains a formula of 80% Active Leptospermum Honey (Manuka honey) and 20% natural gelling agents. In vitro studies have shown Staphylococcus aureus to be one of the most sensitive bacteria to Medihoney Antibacterial Honey. If you or your loved one is having a hard time keeping the dressing intact, soak a gauze dressing in the MEDIHONEY (or use the MEDIHONEY square dressing) and apply it directly on the wound, then top with an abdominal pad dressing.

References to its healing abilities are found in the Smith Papyrus, in the writings of Hippocrates and Galen, and even in the Talmud. The NICE British National Formulary for Children (BNFc) site is only available to users in the UK (England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland). If you have any questions, please reach out to our friendly, supportive Care Team at your earliest convenience.In 2007, the journal Wounds featured an article that evaluated the in vitro activity of Medihoney Antibacterial Honey against a challenge set of 127 clinical isolates with multiple antibiotic resistance.

Cover the MEDIHONEY gel, paste, or alginate dressing with an absorbent sterile, secondary bandage or a compression garment. It comes in both prescription-strength and over-the-counter formulas and provides a safe, effective, way to manage burns, arterial ulcers, and surgical wounds. The new paradigm of moist wound healing has significantly improved outcomes and has helped clinicians make knowledge-based decisions affecting the healing process. This is in part due to the fact that a reduction in pH has been shown to decrease protease activity, therefore diminishing the production of slough.units shifts the oxygen/hemoglobin curve to the right, causing a release of almost 50% more oxygen, which fuels the cellular functions essential to the repair process. It also has an anti-inflammatory effect that helps speed the healing time of existing wounds and reduces pain.

To keep the skin well hydrated, leave-on emollients should be applied in adequate amounts to sufficiently cover dry and inflamed areas.
