so you have to be on blood thinners to use these? or else they wont work?

No, you do not need to be on blood thinners. My problem stemmed from the fact that I was unable to get my blood to clot naturally. The product should greatly accelerate your clotting situation.

No, these are a little packet of powder that combine with your blood and form an instant artificial scab. Useful if you have a wound you can't stitch, such as a bad scrape or if you accidentally nip the tip of your finger off. I would imagine being on blood thinners would make these a better option than just a bandage since they are designed to act like a natural scab.

No, you don't have to take blood thinners for WoundSeal Powder to work. It is just more important for people who take Warferin or other blood thinners because it is sometimes very difficult for those people to stop even small surface injuries. WoundSeal Powder really stops such bleeding instantly.

No! They work on any cut or wound that is bleeding on anyone. The powder forms an instant scab, that completely stops the bleeding. Also, we feel that the wound heals in about half the normal time as well. The packets are small enough to carry one in your pocket, wallet, or any place you can tuck one, for quick access.

No, I have seen it used on children, they say it burns a bit. My husband has used it once and he is not on blood thinners. He was out in the country, not near help, and had to use it on a bad cut. Hope this helps.

They work with or without blood thinners, work great for post dialysis bleeding control

I would be hesitant to use them around needles. That would be a manufacturer questions, but I would be really surprised if they said yes.

These are NOT testing strips. They are lancets and work with most lancing devices. Stop in at your local pharmacy and ask them if the lancets will work with your lancing device. Testing strips will likely work only with one manufacture's meters, and perhaps only with some of their meters.

No, they either bleed or write very light. I tried many of them and I wouldn't use the again

I don't think that would be a problem. They are not as hard to put on as the prescription type such as I had to have from the vascular after vein surgery,however they are not as easy as regular knee highs either. Good luck.

I don't see why you couldn't use them to draw as they do not spread or run once they are applied; I use them to mark on fabric so can only theorize on the results on paper.

I used a regular printer and they worked. Just do not allow it to come in contact with water or it will bleed

Yes, they are sterile for iv use. I am not sure they would come any other way.

I do not know as you are supposed to use them when your skin is dry so I am thinking no they are not.

500 mg time release. I believe this can thin your blood so check with physician befpre using unless it was recommended by your physician in a particular dose. My physician recommended the appropriate dose for me, which is different (lower) than what is on the product label.

They don't. You need a medium-size drop of blood, drawn up by capillary action (rather than deposited on the strip like on the first One Touch). Any lancet device I've seen except the Delica (comes with the Verio meter) will work fine. I favor the Freestyle lancet device as it's stubby for storage, and easier to use than many, but you probably already have a lancet device that's perfectly adequate.

My husband was on bloodthinners also. This didn't work as much as I had hoped. When I saw it was used my trauma EMTs I thought it would work. Even a shaving nick would bleed for days and this may have slowed it, but never stopped it. Cleaning wasn't a problem because it never really stopped it. I wish I had something to recommend but I don't for people on blood thinner.
