Use of adrenaline hydrochloride for treating cuts.

I apologise in advance if this has already been covered but I am new to Ax and I can't seem to find a definitve answer.

I am a Muay Thai instructor with over 20 yrs experience, I have been away from the competition side of the sport for 10 years and have just got back into it seriously this year.

I have a couple of fighters on shows in the coming months. Since it has been a long time since I cornered anyone I thought I would seek advice from the MT community.

I have a paramedic who will act as cutman for me. He is trying to source adrenaline for use on cut treatment as part of his kit but has been told it is now prescription only.

As it would appear this is the only coagulent that is approved for use by the UKMF/WMC treatment of cuts seems a bit limited. Obviously I am no medical expert but my man assures me that adrenaline allergy is less dangerous than allergy to paracetamol because of the very low dosage gained from the 1:1000 solution.

The british boxing board of control sell a corner mans bag for £80 with all bandages/ice packs etc and a bottle of adrenaline!! But it is only available after you have attended one of their courses.

Without wishing to steal anyones trade secrets, what do you trainers/ corner men use for treating a cut, mid fight?
