Question:

I’m looking for a product called Medline Advanced Wound Care Silver Powder (5 grams). I believe it’s sold in the United States. It’s an amazing product that helps heal wounds quickly, and I’m hoping it’s available in Canada. Do you know where this product can be purchased here?

Answer:

Thank you for reaching out to Ostomy Canada with your question.

Medline does offer a range of wound care products in Canada, including silver-infused wound care products. Availability may vary depending on the specific item, and some products sold in the U.S. might not be stocked directly in Canadian pharmacies or retail outlets.

To explore your purchasing options in Canada, you can visit Medline’s Canadian website:

MedlineHome | Medline Canada

From there, you can search for wound care products and inquire about availability through their customer support or by contacting local distributors. You may also consider speaking with your local pharmacy or wound care clinic, as they may be able to order the product for you directly.

If you are under the care of a nurse or physician, they may also be able to recommend comparable alternatives that are readily available in Canada.

We hope this helps, and we wish you all the best with your healing.
