I actually used it,
So 2 days ago I picked up a frozen dog bowl and it shattered in my hand. I didn’t feel the cut but I saw some really dark blood coming from my hand. I could tell it was bad, but didn’t really look at it. I put a towel on it. Went to the cabinet and got the small celox container (I used about half of it) and poured it on and put the towel back over it. I kept pressure on it for about 5 minutes. There was no extra pain or discomfort from the powder. After a few minutes I took off the towel and found several red areas and a fair bit of dry powder. I blew the powder away and since I was in a rush just put medical tape over the red areas. After about 2 hours I was done running errands and so I applied a Activ-Flex bandaid. I like these because they stay in place for several days. To apply the bandage I cleaned away most of the gel but was afraid if I removed all of it I would start bleeding so I left the wound with some covering it. Today I changed the bandage and cleaned the wound completely. I should probably have gone to the hospital the day I got the cut. Not that I’m going now, but I should probably have gotten stitches. The cut was very deep and about a inch and a half long. I was really surprised at the depth. I would have had trouble stopping this from bleeding with pressure alone and would have reopened it constantly.
So what do I feel Celox did? It helped me stay calm. While initially there was a fair bit of blood I knew I had something to treat it. That was important. I knew as soon as it happened that I had a plan. Next it made the blood loss significantly less. I was not going to bleed to death from this wound, but I would rather not have a mountain of bloody paper towels all over. Again calm. It painlessly stopped the bleeding. It actually allowed me to find several spots that I didn’t know were bleeding because after applying pressure it was easy to see the areas with the red gel and the dry powder. It allowed me to create a temporary bandage with just tape. It saved me a trip to the hospital. This might not be the best thing, it would probably heal better with a few stitches but I’ll live either way.
I just finished ordering the 10 pack again. I will put a few more around the house and cars. Hope this helps.

As a Medic, CELOX is indispensable for any Traumatic Body Wounds, where a major blood loss source needs immediate & temporary control measures. CELOX and other similar treatment options are part of my Med Pak’s, which I have 2, one for First Responder and another for tac ‘field-duty’ purposes.
