BleedStop™ First Aid Powder for Blood Clotting, Trauma Kit, Blood Thinner Patients, Camping Safety, and Survival Equipment for Moderate to Severe Bleeding Wounds or Nosebleeds 5 Pack 15g

Thank Goodness I haven't had to use these yet -- but I think it's essential to have at least one box around in any situation that might require bleeding control. Because it's not cumbersome, because it's reasonably priced and divided into small, single-use packets, this is just what I wanted.This stuff was invented for battlefield and EMT use a couple of decades ago; I originally became aware of it when I saw it on a network newscast. Many lives and limbs have been saved using it.I would definitely NOT call myself a "prepper:" but that doesn't mean that I'm not self-sufficient, or that I do not keep up-to-date and complete first aid kits in my vehicle, my shop, and my home. So, I've been waiting for someone to offer this first aid element "BY ITSELF" -- reasonably and without a bunch of first aid gear and supplies I already have in my emergency kits.This fits the bill -- glad somebody packages and sells it in this configuration.

From the moment I opened the package, I knew I had made the right choice. I was genuinely thrilled—it was exactly what I hoped for (maybe even better)! The quality is outstanding, the details are spot-on, and you can tell it was made with care.I’ve been using it every day since it arrived, and I can’t stop recommending it. It brings a smile to my face every time I see it! If you’re on the fence, don’t hesitate—this is absolutely worth it!

My friend is on high dose statins and bleeds very easily. We have little packs of these everywhere! A little goes a long way. I got 3"x3" zip bags and put about 2-3 teaspoons in each. Then I put that is a larger zip bag with bandaids and an alcohol wipe. They are in our backpacks, my purse, our cars.... Everywhere!

I use blood thinners. It took me 3 times as long to stop bleeding than a person who was not on blood thinners. Now I take about as long or less time as a person not on blood thinners to stop bleeding.

Used it for the first time on my dog after she tore her nail off at the base and was bleeding all over the house. I then had to use it on myself a week later when I stubbed my toe on the wall so bad I destroyed my own nail and was bleeding all over the house.

My local pharmacy was out of stock and i was able to order and get this overnight. This is a must have for any first aide kit as it will stop bleeding in wounds that don't need toi be addressed by the emergency room or clinic/doctors. I sliced off the tip of my thumb and it wouldn't stop bleeding unless constant direct pressure was applied, The following morning I cleaned the wound and it wouldn't stop bleeding so I open the package and stuck my thumb directly into the pack of bleedstop and held it for 30 seconds and the wound sealed and stopped bleeding. I was able to properly bandage and kept it clean and dry and the healing process started quickly. It was fully healed over in 3 weeks. This stuff works!

I'm not really sure how to review this, as I have not needed to use it and HOPE to never need it... so I will just explain why I bought it and why it fits my needs.I am part of an emergency readiness organization, and that includes medical emergencies. If you or someone else is hurt, having the ability to do basic first aid is important. A coagulant like BleedStop is EXTREMELY important to keep in your IFAK (Individual First Aid Kit), vehicle first aid kit, or home first aid kit.That's why I bought this: To put in the various first aid kits I keep in case of a medical emergency.I hope I never need to use it, but I will be incredibly glad to have it should I ever be in a situation where I have to staunch the bleeding of a serious injury.

Must use a lot to get the blood to clot. We used a whole packet just to get a scratch stopped and it took an hour.
