One supplier across the in-home wound care workflow
Home health and senior care work happens across a wider range of wound types than any single product can cover. A visiting nurse may see a pressure injury in the morning, a kitchen knife cut at lunch, a chronic leg ulcer in the afternoon, and a post-Mohs follow-up at the end of the day. AllaQuix®'s four products span that range: High-Performance chitosan for harder bleeds, Lite calcium alginate for moderately draining wounds, Bandages for the daily nuisance cut, and Basic island dressings sized to the wound for routine coverage.
Because the entire lineup is FDA reviewed and cleared for OTC use, agencies can stock it once and use it across every patient. No prescription requirement, no different product for in-office versus at-home, no surprise stock-outs because one product line is on backorder.

IN-HOME WORKFLOW
Four common in-home scenarios
Harder bleed during a visit
HP 2×2 or 4×4 chitosan goes on directly with firm pressure for 15 minutes. Works mechanically, independent of the clotting cascade.
Chronic wound drainage
Lite calcium alginate absorbs the exudate, supports a moist healing environment, and is gentle on the surrounding skin.
Routine bandage change
Basic island dressing sized to the wound. The soft adhesive border holds through bathing and daily activity, with easy peel-off.
Patient self-care moments
AllaQuix® Bandages are gentle enough for the patient or family caregiver to use between visits, reducing urgent calls.

FAQ
Common questions from procurement + clinical teams
What wound care supplies do home health nurses use?
Most home health and senior-care workflows need coverage across four wound types: harder bleeds (where a chitosan gauze like AllaQuix® High-Performance helps), moderately draining wounds (where a calcium alginate like AllaQuix® Lite is the right fit), routine post-procedure or chronic-site coverage (where a non-woven adhesive island dressing like AllaQuix® Basic in mini, 4×4, 4×6, or 4×14 sizes works), and daily nuisance bleeds for patient self-care (where AllaQuix® Bandages give the patient something gentler than a Band-Aid). The full AllaQuix® lineup is FDA reviewed and cleared for OTC use, so agencies can stock and apply it without a prescription requirement.
Are AllaQuix® products safe for elderly patients with fragile skin?
Yes. AllaQuix® Lite, Bandages, and Basic use soft, hypoallergenic adhesives and calcium alginate pads designed to peel away without tearing fragile or aging skin. They're a good fit for elderly and sensitive-skin patients in home care.
Is there a bulk or case-pricing program for home health agencies?
Yes. We offer bulk and case pricing for agency procurement so you can stock the full lineup once and use it across every patient. Request an evaluation pack or talk to sales.
Can patients or family caregivers use these between nurse visits?
Yes. AllaQuix® Bandages and Basic island dressings are simple enough for patients and family caregivers to apply between visits, which helps reduce urgent calls. The full lineup is OTC and requires no prescription.
Which products are reimbursable?
AllaQuix® Lite may be eligible for HCPCS A6196 reimbursement when medically necessary and used as directed. The other products (High-Performance, Bandages, and Basic) are not billed under A6196. Reimbursement depends on payer and documentation — talk to your supplier and billing team.
Do AllaQuix® products work for patients on multiple blood thinners?
Yes. AllaQuix® High-Performance chitosan works independently of the clotting cascade, so it's effective even for patients on multiple anticoagulants or antiplatelets. It's for minor topical bleeding only — escalate per your agency's protocol for anything more serious.
