FAQ

You may be wondering what MEBO means?

MEBO® is an acronym for Moist Exposed Burn Ointment.

The name of the ointment indicates two important protocols to be adopted when using this product to heal a wide range of skin wounds.

Firstly, during the healing stage the wound must remain moist with the ointment.

Secondly, with reference to ‘Exposed’, it is not necessary to cover the wound site with a secondary dressing. MEBO includes ingredients that provide a barrier function (sesame oil and beeswax) and have antimicrobial effects. Avoid contact with clothing or bedding as staining may result.

However, a secondary dressing maybe appropriate to further protect the wound site if contact with clothing or bedding is an issue.
