Fund Amicapsil on the NHS for people with pressure sores/ulcers
We want the Government to provide funding to make Amicapsil available to suffers of pressure sores and ulcers.
Amicapsil can work better and quicker towards healing and closure of open wounds, and so reduce the risk of infections and Sepsis.
We believe making the more widely available could help reduce hospital admissions, debridements, bone removal and much more.
There are around 700,000+ UK sufferers with around 60,000+ deaths per year caused by pressure Sores.
Amicapsil could save many thousands of lives per year, reduce Hospital visits and lengthy admissions with many requiring surgeries, reduce thousands of sufferers requiring long term oral Antibiotics, reduce the risk of serious life threatening conditions Sepsis/Osteomyelitis.
We believe Amicapsil needs to be made more widely available ASAP.
If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
