Friars Balsam has been used for over a century to treat wounds. Known as "hotshot" in the first world war. Commercial and health service alternatives (wipes etc) are now made with aqueous solutions and leave the wound wet, so dressings won't stick to the skin. A wipe-over with FB cleans the skin, is antiseptic, and soothes any irritation. It leaves a dry sticky layer that the adhesive dressing sticks to very securely.

I just ran out of my previous supply of Friars' Balsam, so was delighted to find it listed here at a reasonable price. I always turn to it and it never fails. I have tried other things over the years, usually at the urging of my dear trendy daughter, but nothing ever hits the problem like Friars'.

It is an amazing product. I have to endure wearing an ileostomy bag - have done so fo the past 40+ years. Friars balsam is a magic soother for raw skin and flesh, so I find it indispensable when changing appliances. My only gripe is that suddenly it has increased 10 times in price - from £3.50 per 50ml bottle to £35.00
