Actually, that is a brand name for bandages. Just like Curad, etc. But...new research is showing that they can have very high levels of forever chemicals (PFAS). That is really disturbing given that those are most often applied to open wounds, and therefore can easily enter the body. This is just one link. If you google it, you'll find a LOT more. So pick your preferred source. Funny enough, we applied a bandage to me yesterday morning, and last night I read the article (and promptly pulled the bandage off, but of course whatever was there to absorb had likely already been absorbed).
