Quick clot gauze-what brand?

[Mosby]

I want to get some quick clot gauze for my first aid kit. Several brands on Amazon but I have no idea if there is a difference in quality. Prices are all similar. Is one brand better than another or is there a specific brand you can recommend? I've never used the stuff so I thought I would ask. Thanks.

When I was still working as an EMS Chief our ambulances carried QuikClot. That was what our head trauma surgeon wanted us to carry.

I second airmedic. Do not buy any knock off of it from Amazon. Some knock offs have a hemostatic agent that generates heat, not good.
QuikClot changed their agent years back to a quagulant only, no heat.
