Aniwell Active Manuka Honey Tube
- Active Manuka Honey contains the unique compound ‘methylglyoxal’ that provides a special natural antibacterial function able to block many infectious bacteria.
- The primary advantage is from the unique Antibacterial effect that is determined by tests formulated by the Waikato Honey Research unit at Waikato University NZ as stated by a plus (+) number. Ideal antibacterial activity is achieved if the Active Manuka Honey is 15+ and above.
- The Peroxide effect (H2O2)–> this is released from the honey when aqueous (fluid) contact is made (serum production from damaged areas).
- Honey is a super sugar solution so when applied to damaged skin it draws moisture/fluid from the area (using osmosis) so working as a gentle poultice.
How to Use AMHVet Cream: Apply directly onto the area requiring care –> AMHVet Cream will minimize bacterial infection on damaged skin areas. A dressing is not required to hold the cream in place as it does not warm up and run off • the cream forms a waterproof film over the damaged skin. Cover with a dressing is necessary only if the animal is likely to be able to reach the wound and lick it off As the wound heals (no infection present, colonization cleared) cover the damaged skin area with FiltaBac Cream to allow the skin to breathe and recover naturally. No need for a dressing with FiltaBac! AMHVet Cream has a skin soluble surfactant added to maximize surface contact. AMHVet Cream should not be used when a sterile dressing is required after surgical procedures
