How does TheraHoney Gel Honey Dressing work?
Medline TheraHoney products use special honey called Manuka honey from New Zealand. This honey comes from a specific kind of plant. They only collect honey from the beehive one time, and then they clean it very well, make sure it’s free of germs, and test it in a lab to make sure it works really well.
- Using TheraHoney with lots of sugar helps get rid of dead tissue and bad smells and keeps wounds moist to help them heal. Manuka Honey also helps make wounds less acidic, which is good for healing. When using TheraHoney Gel, wounds get better by reducing dead tissue and making the wound smaller in about 4 weeks.
The above illustration shows the way in which the osmotic action of Manuka honey draws exudate from subcutaneous tissue to the wound surface, removing debris, slough, and necrotic tissue.
