Frequently asked questions

Can I use Berringa Australian Manuka Honey High Strength (MGO 550+) 500g directly on an open wound?

First-aid tapes, fixation bandages, and outer dressings are typically intended to hold a sterile wound dressing or pad in place rather than to contact the wound directly. Apply a sterile, non-adherent wound dressing or pad over the wound first, then secure with the outer bandage or tape. Always check the Berringa Honey product instructions for the intended application.

Is Berringa Australian Manuka Honey High Strength (MGO 550+) 500g latex-free?

Latex content varies by product. Many modern wound-care products are latex-free to reduce risk of allergic reaction. If you have a known latex allergy, check the Berringa Honey packaging or speak with your pharmacist before first use.

When should I seek medical advice for a wound?

Seek medical advice if a wound shows signs of infection (increasing pain, swelling, redness extending beyond the wound, pus, fever), if it is deep, dirty, or contains foreign material, if it is on the face or over a joint, if the person has not had a tetanus booster in the last 10 years, or if it is not healing as expected after a few days. HealthDirect Australia (1800 022 222) can provide nurse-led triage advice.

Can Berringa Australian Manuka Honey High Strength (MGO 550+) 500g be used when wet — for example in the shower?

Waterproof claims vary by product. Standard fabric or paper tapes are not waterproof and should be replaced if they get wet. Specific waterproof or water-resistant products (often labelled "Aqua" or with an IP rating) are designed for shower/swim use. Check the Berringa Honey packaging or ask your pharmacist.

How should I store Berringa Australian Manuka Honey High Strength (MGO 550+) 500g?

Store wound-care products below 25°C in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Keep in the original packaging until use and do not use products that appear damaged, contaminated, or beyond their printed expiry date.
