Medline TheraHoney Wound Gel Dressing, 100% Medical-Grade Manuka Honey
PRODUCT DETAILS
Medline TheraHoney Wound Gel is impregnated with sterile, medical-grade Manuka honey derived from the pollen and nectar of the Leptospermum Scoparium plant in northern New Zealand. The honeycomb is used only one time, and once harvested, the honey is carefully filtered, irradiated and tested in a laboratory. High sugar levels in TheraHoney result in osmotic pressure that help promote autolytic debridement of necrotic tissue, a moist wound healing environment, and helps rapidly reduce wound odor. Medline TheraHoney Wound Gel stands as an exceptional choice for those seeking a natural and comfortable approach to wound management.

What is Manuka Honey?
TheraHoney products contain 100% sterile, medical-grade Manuka honey with no fillers or additives. Manuka honey is derived from the pollen and nectar of the Leptospermum scoparium plant in New Zealand. The honey comb is used only one time, and once harvested, the honey is carefully filtered, irradiated and tested in a laboratory for high efficacy.
Manuka honey has unique properties that help create a moist wound environment conducive to wound healing, promote natural (autolytic) debridement to clear away necrotic tissue, and reduce wound odor.
