An adhesive dispensing arrangement (10) comprises an adhesive patch (12), a sachet (14), a sachet sealing strip (16), a pair of parallel gauze flaps (18A and 18B), and a peelable backing strip (20). The sachet houses a medicament such as an antiseptic or anti-microbial ointment (30), and the exposable surface (32) of the sachet is formed with a series of regularly spaced apertures (34) through which the ointment (30) may be dispensed. The peeling backing strip (20) and sachet sealing strip (16) are simultaneously peeled away, thereby exposing the apertures (34), with a central portion of the sealing strip being pulled through the gap between the gauze flaps (18A and 18B). The adhesive patch (12) is then applied around the affected area, with the ointment (30) and the sachet being dispensed via the apertures onto the gauze flaps and into treating contact with the wound.
