Another great product from Medique. Very inexpensive and very handy when you need a hot compress pack for accidents and emergency situations. We are excited to have purchased this, but hopefully we wont have to use it!

These work great and get quite warm. They won't last you as long as a topical warming chemical will (think salonpas capsaicin patches) but they will work great for more acute things. The inner bag is a little tough to burst - to prevent accidental activation. When I was a firefighter, the EMTs would punch these to activate them.

purchased the medi-first instant hot packs. The packs get hot enough, but they are extremely difficult to activate. A lot of pressure is required. When in pain, it is most difficult.

Thank you for reviewing this product! If there is a hand or forearm injury that prevents the use of both hands for activation, the vendor suggests finding the inner pouch and applying gentle pressure with the heal of your foot.

These are very handy. I use them frequently when I need a portable heat and can't feasibly take a heating pad along with me. They stay warm for a long time and are very affordable.

These instant ice packs are great. They work fast and more importantly they are very reasonably priced, so buying multiples at a time is what we do.

I liked how one-sided can go directly on the skin. However, it is a little small, so it loses temperature quickly. All in all a pretty good deal for the money.

Extra large for use on large areas of the body like your back. You have to squeeze pretty hard to get it started but then heats up fast!

This instant cold pack is great for any first aid kit or to have on hand when bumps and bruises occur. It doesn't take up a lot of space, which is a plus.

We like using these ice packs because they don’t take up much room in our freezer and they work excellent! Our employees can easily grab them and even use them on the go!

Medi-first 6” x 9” instant hot pack/hot compress is an excellent tool for home or travel needs when there’s a muscle strain to your body. I injured my back weight training and use this compress which helped alleviate the muscle pain. I’ll definitely be buying more of these to keep around the house for future needs.

One to a package, this medium sized cold pack is instant after activating it. By Medi-First, it acts as a cold compress according to the directions on the box that are in both English and Spanish.

The hot compress is a good way to refill a first aid kit. it is well made, and a nice size. The price is excellent, as well. These are good for muscle pain, but also, in an emergency, can be used to help warm some one up.

These instant cold compresses are great. They fold up so they are pretty compact but when you open it up to use it, it's quite large. Great for car or motorcycle first aid kits.

I have used these many times in my athletic career. I bought them for that just in case moment when you're not around a freezer that has a freezer pad in it. You simply "pop" the bag and it gets almost instantly cold, however the cold doesn't last super long. That being said you're suppose to keep a cold compress on injury about 20 minutes and its does just that. its a great one use item when not around ice or a freezer

This instant compress is an alternative to using ice to reduce swelling. its a small package with a goo inside that can be activated to make cool by agitating the bag.

These ice packs cool down super fast. But they don't last all that long. Also, remember that these are not re-usable. These aren't the kind you throw in the freezer and use again.
