Wound Care
Wound care is one of the most critical services provided by Beebe’s Mobile Health Clinic Team. Many wounds seen in the community are linked to complications from substance use disorder, particularly involving xylazine (commonly called tranq), a dangerous veterinary tranquilizer increasingly found in illicit drugs.
What You Should Know About Xylazine
- Not approved for human use
- Causes slow or non-healing wounds, even without injection
- Can lead to serious complications requiring medical care
For more information, download our printable resources with overdose prevention and wound care tips specific to xylazine.
Patients needing further wound management may be referred to Beebe Wound Healing & Hyperbaric Medicine, either by a primary care provider or through Beebe's Community Mobile Health Clinic.
