"AmeriGel can be ordered by any Walgreens, CVS or even WalMart. The pharmacist just has to special order it and have it within a day or two. Art Simonetti"

Hello Art!

 

Welcome to WoundTalk!  We are so glad you joined us and love to seeing you on the Forum.  I'm so glad you brough up AmeriGel.  I have been using this for two years now and feel the industry has not recognized it enough.  I love that it is an all-natural product.  Do you know if it is still sold exclusively by podiatrists? 

 

Kim Davis, LVN
