For wound care

Dressing a wound at home, properly.

After a procedure, a burn or a slow healing graze, the chemist aisle gives you plasters and not much else.

This is what a treatment room would actually use, in quantities that make sense for one person.

Surgical tape, gauze squares and sterile pouches
What we supply
Dressings, gauze, tape, saline, gloves and bandages.
What comes from your pharmacy
Any antibiotic or prescription ointment. If a wound is infected, that is a conversation with a doctor rather than a shopping list.
The kit

How often are you changing it?

Set it below and the order follows. Each line shows how long a pack lasts at that rate, so you can see what is a monthly buy and what is a once a year one.

{{ note }}
Quantities are a starting point, not a prescription. Your prescriber sets your dose, your route and your schedule. Where those differ from anything here, follow them.

What a treatment room does differently

01
Non-adherent, always
A plain gauze pad dries into the wound bed and takes the new tissue off when you pull it. A non-adherent contact layer is the single biggest upgrade over a chemist plaster.
02
Saline, not antiseptic
Routine cleaning is saline. Antiseptics are cytotoxic to the cells doing the healing, which is why clinics reach for them far less than people expect.
03
Single use sachets
A big bottle of saline is contaminated the moment it is opened and then used over a fortnight. Sachets cost slightly more and remove that entirely.
04
Change it less than you think
A wound left undisturbed under a good dressing heals faster than one inspected daily. Follow what your practitioner told you rather than instinct.
FAQ

Questions people actually ask.

If yours is not here, the contact form routes straight to the team that can answer it.

How do I know if it is infected?
Spreading redness, heat, increasing pain, or discharge with an odour. None of that is something to manage from a supply list. See a doctor.
Is this suitable after surgery?
Follow the instructions you were discharged with. They are specific to your wound and they override any general list, including this one.
Do you sell antiseptics?
We stock chlorhexidine and alcohol preparations as consumables. Anything prescription only comes from a pharmacy.
Can I buy just one box?
Yes. No minimum order and no account. Buy a single box or a pallet, the price per unit is on the page either way.
