What my doctor ordered
My Dermatologist requested I purchase this for a wound that has been slow to heal. I am not sure what this particular gauze does but it seems to be helping. My only problem is the length of time is takes to receive this product from the company especially because it is a medical product. My next order will take a week to or two to arrive. SAD

Finally...healing!
Ended up with wound dehiscence after surgery. Went weeks with no apparent healing and was losing hope. A friend recommended Acticoat and, with my surgeon's blessing, I tried it. The wounds have healed more in 1.5 weeks than the previous 4 weeks combined. This stuff is a miracle!! Depending on the size of your wound, one package can last quite a while so don't worry about a little bit of initial sticker shock (it's really not that bad though)

Too expensive
Good stuff. It works, that’s why medical professionals use it. I’ve used it several times, for weeks every time, without reinfection. Used as directed it works. The price is way too high but this is probably more the manufacturer’s fault vs the retailers.

Great
The wound care center was using this on my husband's diabetic foot ulcer. They gave us some, but we ran out. This was a great price for a great product. Healed up nicely.

This is used for chronic open wound covering in our case
Surgeon recommended this and we have used it during a long healing process. You can cut it to fit the wound as it is supposed to only be over the wound and not over healed areas. I purchase the large size and cut appropriate size each time we redress the wound.

This does the job intended for wound packing.
We've gone through wound packing twice. The first time we used regular gauze. This silver-coated fabric worked about th same, but we felt more confident with this because silver is antibacterial.
