Healing Honey!
Give your body the help it needs to heal with Algivon. Algivon with Activon Honey is a non-adherent alginate dressing impregnated with medical grade Manuka Honey. Algivon’s Manuka Honey is equivalent to UMF 14, for a broad-spectrum antibacterial effect. It’s effective against most wound invading bacteria, including the drug resistant MRSA.
