Wound Care

Proper wound healing is about more than just closing a cut — it’s essential for protecting your overall health. When wounds don’t heal properly and become chronic, they can trigger widespread inflammation in the body, affecting other organs and leading to serious health complications. Because skin is your body’s first line of defence, helping it heal correctly is critical for restoring its protective barrier and keeping you healthy.

At Dispensaries Ltd., we offer expert wound care support and customized compounded medications tailored to your specific healing needs. Per a prescription order, our pharmacists can create a specialized formulation that contains the right combination of active ingredients in the most appropriate base, whether a cream, ointment, gel, or even a specialized powdered polyol bandage. Every wound is different, and choosing the right product can significantly affect how quickly and completely it heals.

For example, gels are often preferred for certain types of wounds because they can be gently rinsed away with irrigation, minimizing the disruption to new tissue growth. In cases where a wound has fluid or exudate, a polyol bandage may be a better option, which can be puffed onto the wound and stick even to moist surfaces. We can adjust the active ingredients to match your wound’s needs for faster, more effective healing.

Our team is here to help you heal properly and comfortably. Dispensaries Ltd. offers the personal attention, expertise, and high-quality care you can trust, whether you need advice on over-the-counter wound care products or a customized compounded solution.
