Hedrin
Thornton & Ross

Hedrin

Hedrin solution contains dimeticone, which is used in many pharmaceutical and cosmetic preparations. A 4% concentration has been found to affect the physico-physiological activity of lice. It is less effective in its ovicidal activity and therefore two applications, 7 days apart, are required. It contains no neurotoxic organophosphate insecticides and acts by a physical process that covers the lice and disrupts their ability to manage their water balance so that treated insects fail to excrete surplus water. Its activity is not diminished in insecticide-resistant head lice

Mediq

HidraWear

The world’s first and only hidradenitis suppurativa (HS)-specific dressing retention system, intended for use by people with HS lesions in difficult-to-dress areas of the body, such as the armpit, buttocks and groin. The system is made up of two parts: HidraWear reusable baselayers, which act as a dressing retention aid and HidraWear dressings with SecureLock Technology, which are soft & super absorbent, locking in large amounts of exudate. The system removes the need for the dressings to be adhesively attached to the skin leading to quicker, less painful dressing changes, no leakage and more freedom to move.
