Advancis Actilite is an active antibacterial wound dressing - a non-adherent knitted viscose fabric impregnated with medical-grade Activon Manuka honey (minimum 18% MGO). It reduces bacterial burden and biofilm without antibiotics while supporting a moist healing environment, and its non-adherent construction removes cleanly without disturbing the wound bed. 10 dressings, each 10 cm x 10 cm. Key features: Medical-grade Activon Manuka honey - potent antibacterial action Non-adherent - removes cleanly without disturbing the wound bed Reduces wound biofilm and bacterial burden without antibiotics Suitable for infected, contaminated, sloughy, and necrotic wounds Manuka honey works through osmotic action, hydrogen peroxide production, and low pH - mechanisms bacteria cannot develop resistance to. Valuable for infected lacerations and bite wounds, pressure sores, post-surgical dehiscence, chronic non-healing wounds, burns, and wounds with slough. A small increase in exudate in the first 1-2 days is normal as the honey draws fluid. Change every 1-3 days depending on exudate, cover with a secondary bandage to prevent licking, and pair with an absorbent secondary dressing for heavy exudate.
