The Derma Sciences Medihoney Paste is designed for use on dry to lightly exuding wounds and challenging-to-dress areas. It is composed of 100% Active Leptospermum Honey (ALH), hailing from New Zealand, and this unique composition makes it an ideal choice for the management of both chronic and acute wounds, including burns. It is particularly effective on hard-to-heal wounds and burns, aiding in the debridement of wounds and maintaining clean wound beds, free from necrotic tissue.
