MDXG

Mimedx Group, Inc.

A maker of regenerative medicine products that turn donated human placental and amniotic tissue into natural healing dressings used by doctors to treat chronic wounds and support surgical recovery. Its best-known brands include EPIFIX, EPICORD, and AMNIOFIX. The name blends "medical" and "Medx," and it was adopted in 2008 when a dormant Utah shell company merged with a Florida biomaterials startup to form the company now based in Marietta, Georgia. Amniotic tissue has actually been used to dress wounds for over a century—surgeons once even sewed "afterbirth" into patients before modern safety standards.
