Sterilised Manuka Honey product ManukaCare gains UK medical devices license
07/01/2010

ManukaCare, the very popular medical grade sterilised manuka honey product has gained greater recognition in achieving a medical devices license in the UK.

This is a very positive step for those people who want to use proper sterilised manuka honey on their wounds or leg ulcer but have struggled to get their doctor or nurse to agree.

The new tubes of Manukacare are now CE marked (number CE0120), and are allowed to mention its usefulness against MRSA. This indicates its regulation status as a medical device and behind each one of these marks is technical agreement necessary to manufacture the product to the required standard.

This new version does still have a UMF® rating, although it is no longer shown on the pack. Since it has been able to achieve a medical devices license for this product, there is now allowed greater claims as to its capability...

For example Manukacare can now claim 'first aid ready', 'suitable for most wound types' and 'reduces the risk of infection from bacteria including MRSA' (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus - the nasty antibiotic resistant superbug). ManukaCare (as it is called in the UK/Europe) continues to be a prime medical grade manuka honey product, ready sterilised, and perfect for your use on a variety of wounds including leg ulcers, burns, cuts, and many more. Suitable on animals as well as humans. 100% Antibacterial Manuka Honey.
