Bringing New Zealand Manuka Bee Farms to Band-Aid
If you are having a headache with the following problems:
• Exudate from postoperative wounds, and it hurts to tears every time you change the gauze
• Repeated infection and odor of diabetic foot ulcers
• Scars left by scratches on children
Then, this 850+ word in-depth experience article will show you the “honey + seaweed” black technology dressing of MediHoney Apinate – why it can make doctors, nurses, and mothers give it five stars.

1. Why choose honey dressing?
Manuka honey (Leptospermum spp.), which has been clinically verified for more than 70 years, has a high concentration of methylglyoxal (MGO), which can penetrate bacterial biofilms and has inhibitory effects on common drug-resistant bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, MRSA, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Simply put, it is like a “natural antibiotic” but will not irritate tissues or produce drug resistance.
2. Ingredients
• Main ingredient: medical-grade Manuka honey – hypertonic water absorption, “sucking” bacteria and necrotic tissue into the dressing, while releasing a low pH microenvironment to accelerate granulation growth.
• Secondary ingredient: calcium alginate fiber – instant gelation when encountering exudate, locking in moisture to prevent sticking to the wound; the whole piece slides out when changing the dressing, without pulling.
The two are interwoven into a soft “honey net”, which is both antibacterial and moisturizing. The official actual test shows that the continuous antibacterial effect is > 99% for 7 days. visit official site: www.getmedihoney.com to find more information.
3. Specifications and applicable scenarios
• Sheet: 10 cm × 10 cm, single piece independent sterile packaging, 5 pieces per box, suitable for superficial abrasions, postoperative incisions, and pressure sores.
• Strip/rope: 1.9 cm × 30 cm can be cut, specially for sinus tracts, deep cavities or amputation stumps.
• Change frequency: change every 3–5 days for mild to moderate exudate; check daily for large amounts of exudate, up to 7 days.
4. Real experience: 14-day healing diary of diabetic foot
Day 1: 2 cm×1 cm ulcer on the dorsum of the foot, moderate exudate. Rubbing with alcohol hurts so much that it makes me jump.
→ After cleaning with iodine, cut a 10 cm×10 cm sheet to cover it, and fix it with a foam dressing on the outside.
Day 3: No adhesion when peeled off, the exudate is locked by the gel, and the odor disappears.
Day 7: Pink new granulation grows on the edge and shrinks to 1 cm×0.5 cm.
Day 14: The wound is closed, leaving only a light pink mark. No oral antibiotics were taken throughout the process.
The case is for reference only. Please see a doctor for serious wounds.
5. 5 most concerned questions and answers by users
Q1 Will it hurt?
A: The initial application of honey hypertonicity will cause slight stinging (relieved within 30 seconds), which is milder than ordinary saline wet compress.
Q2 Can it be used for children?
A: Yes. It contains no drugs or preservatives. Children over 2 years old should use it under parental supervision.
Q3 Will it stain clothes?
A: The outer layer needs to be matched with a secondary dressing (foam or gauze). Honey is locked in the alginate and will not leak.
Q4 Is it effective against MRSA?
A: In vitro tests show that the antibacterial rate is 99.9% within 24 hours, and MRSA is no exception.
Q5 Is it expensive?
A: The official price in the UK is about £39.99/5 tablets, an average of £8/time, which is much cheaper than the cost of changing dressings in hospital.
6. Doctor’s endorsement
Harley Street wound therapist Emma Laing commented: “Traditional effervescent tablets can only clean, while MediHoney can inhibit bacteria and promote healing at the same time, which is especially useful for chronic ulcers.”
7. Usage tips
• First use: Apply a thin layer of vaseline to the edge of the wound to prevent honey from overflowing and irritating healthy skin.
• Cutting tips: Use sterile scissors to cut the rope into “puzzle pieces” to fit irregular wounds.
• Traveling: Individually packaged, can be carried on the plane, an upgraded version of Band-Aid.
• Storage: Store in a cool and dry place, avoid high temperatures above 40 °C, honey will not crystallize and become ineffective.

8. When you must see a doctor
• The wound is getting red, swollen, hot and painful
• The exudate is purulent or smelly
• The blood sugar of diabetic patients is > 13.9 mmol/L
MediHoney Apinate is not a “net celebrity Band-Aid”, but a “micro honey ICU”: natural antibacterial, high absorption and exudation, painless replacement, and healing promotion, four effects in one. From kitchen cuts to diabetic foot, from baby knee abrasions to elderly bedsores, it can fast-forward the healing cycle. Next time you open the medicine box, you might as well let this “honey blanket” become the new trump card for family first aid.…
