Directions for use:
Medihoney™ Antibacterial Wound Gel™ should be applied liberally to prevent the wound fluid from excessively diluting the antibacterial effects of the product. It can be applied either directly to the wound or into a gauze dressing. A non-adherent gauze should be applied to cover the Medihoney™ Antibacterial Wound Gel™ with additional secondary dressings applied as required, dependent on wound fluid levels. The frequency of dressing changes will depend on how rapidly Medihoney™ Antibacterial Wound Gel™ is being diluted by fluids. Daily dressing changes are usual during the initial stages of wound healing. As fluid levels decrease fewer dressing changes are required and can be left up to 3 days. Medihoney™ Antibacterial Wound Gel™ can be removed from the wound by rinsing with saline or tap water at dressing change.
