Quickclot combat gauze is a sterile dressing that is ready-to-use from the package. It is a temporary means of controlling bleeding from a traumatic wound. One advantage is that it will not stick to the wound, so that any clotting stays in place when the bandage is removed. Kaolin is the active ingredient that decreases clotting time dramatically, and has been shown to allow earlier recovery in medical trials.

∙ 9y agoThe active ingredient in QuikClot gauze products is Kaolin. When it contacts blood, it basically forces the clotting cascade into action at the wound site by activating clotting factors in the blood. It also promotes platelet adhesion at the wound site.
It is 100% safe to use and extremely effective.
