Melcura Honey Plus 500g – Medical-Grade Honey Wound Ointment
Melcura Honey Plus 500g is a medical-grade honey wound-care ointment formulated with 48% medical-grade Fynbos honey suspended in an ointment base containing added antioxidants and skin-conditioning agents.
The Plus formulation is designed for the management of problematic wounds, including wounds with significant slough or necrotic tissue, infected wounds, chronic ulcers, and burns.
Melcura Honey Plus combines the natural osmotic and antibacterial properties of medical-grade honey with a soothing ointment base. Its low pH and high osmolarity help inhibit bacterial growth, supporting wound-care management where bacterial burden is a concern.
The formulation also supports autolytic debridement, helping the body's natural processes clear dead or devitalised tissue from the wound bed. By maintaining a moist wound environment, Melcura Honey Plus supports conditions favourable for tissue regeneration and may help reduce inflammation and wound-related discomfort.
The ointment is designed to be gentle on the skin and non-adherent, and does not contain harsh chemicals or preservatives.
