The Wound Healing Potential of 100% Manuka Honey

 Hard-to-heal wounds can be painful for patients and challenging to treat for caregives. The unique properties found in honey can help you manage the different factors that delay healing in acute and chronic wounds.

Discover why honey is the natural solution

TheraHoney products contain 100% sterile, medical grade Manuka honey with no fillers or additives. Honey is well-tolerated by patients and helps promote healing in hard-to-treat wounds. It promotes debridement of damaged tissue, creates a moist wound healing environment and reduces odors coming from the wound

How it’s made

Manuka honey is derived from the pollen and nectar of the Leptospermum scoparium plant in New Zealand. The honeycomb is used only one time, and once harvested, the honey is carefully filtered, irradiated and tested in a laboratory for high efficacy.

We offer a variety of honey products to meet your patients’ unique needs. Medline’s Therahoney line includes four options for hard-to-heal chronic wounds: foam, gel, sheet and HD dressing.

TheraHoney products are recommended for use on:

1. Partial and full-thickness wounds
2. Leg ulcers
3. Pressure injuries
4. First- and second-degree burns
5. Diabetic foot ulcers
6. Surgical wounds and trauma wounds
7. Minor abrasions, lacerations, minor cuts and minor scalds and burns
