Mepitel and Mepilex, What is the difference?
I have just started Radiotherapy. Has anyone had good success with either of these dressings? Does anyone know the difference between these 2 dressings?

I always say I had Mepitel because it's the common one everyone knows but it may have been Mepilex - same, same as far as I know although there may be differences in different grades of dressings. My suggestion is, go for it! I had very little skin breakdown (what I had appeared about 3 weeks after treatment ended) and I know it has worked for others.
