Medical Ethics

Medical Ethics is a commercial and development stage life science company focused on pain mitigation in wounds for humans and animals. Through our proven, patent protected platform technology, we have identified a transformational way of mitigating pain and minimising suffering associated with wounds. In humans, we are investing in the development of our technology for the treatment of chronic wounds such as venous leg ulcers. We have also identified future near-term opportunities for application in the treatment of traumatic wounds caused by surgical procedures and mass trauma situations such as accidents, military conflict and natural disasters. In animals, our technology supports wound care required for surgical procedures in sheep, pigs, cattle, equine and companion animals. We are the first, and currently the only, company globally to develop, launch and commercialise a topical pain and wound management product for use in livestock undergoing painful surgical procedures, such as dehorning, tail docking, castration and fly-strike prevention.
