Medline TheraHoney Gel Honey Dressing

Medline TheraHoney Wound Gel is designed to help promote healing in hard-to-treat wounds. Its high sugar content and low water activity result in osmotic pressure that promotes autolytic debridement of necrotic tissue and creates a moist wound-healing environment. This honey wound gel can be used in case of minor abrasions, lacerations, minor cuts, minor scales, and burns. It has a naturally sweet smell that removes odor-producing bacteria via the transfer of exudate to a secondary dressing (autolytic debridement).

What are 3 Key Benefits of TheraHoney

• Promotes natural debridement:
  • Honey’s high sugar levels (87%) help clear away necrotic tissue, maintain a moist wound environment for healing and reduce wound odor.
• Decreases wound pH:
  • High wound pH can be a barrier to healing. The use of Manuka honey dressing is associated with a statistically significant decrease in wound pH.
• Reduces wound odor underneath:
  • Wounds can smell for a variety of reasons. The use of honey is known to reduce odors stemming from the wound bed.
