Wound Wash

What is saline?
Saline is a water-based solution containing sodium chloride, an essential salt required by the human body, that is hospital-grade in quality. This means that Amerigel® Saline Wound Wash is free from contamination, bacteria and other potentially harmful chemicals found in normal tap water.

Why not just use tap water?
Most health departments allow for certain amounts of bacteria, additives like chlorine and fluoride, etc. that may slow or impair the normal healing process. This can pose a problem in chronic, non-healing wounds or in diabetic patients who are already slow to heal.

Can I just make my own saltwater?
Concentrations of salt vary without exact measurements, so many will get the water too rich in salt or not salty enough.

Can't I just clean the area with soap and water?
Soaps typically leave a residue or film if not adequately rinsed off. Most shower walls and doors accumulate soap scum, which is residue that builds up and must be cleaned with household chemicals. This residue can contain various forms of bacteria and fungus.

Why do we recommend using Saline?
The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) issues clinical practice guidelines for proper treatment recommendations. AHRQ recommends using saline to cleanse the wound; therefore we recommend its use, as well.

Testimonials...   click here for more
My 4-year old grandson has long term Eczema. I ordered the Care Lotion for him. After two applications, my grandson called to thank me. He asked me if I knew what he called the lotion. When I replied “no,” he said it’s the “Cream of Love.” I just wanted to share that reaction which touched my heart.
