MediGuard Exam Gloves by Medline

MediGuard is Medline's high-volume exam glove line built for the reality of a busy practice: gloves you reach for hundreds of times a day, in every size, without blowing the budget. Whether you're stocking a clinic, dental office, long-term care facility, or a home caregiving supply closet, the range covers both nitrile and vinyl so you can match the glove to the task.

The choice between the two comes down to what you're doing. MediGuard ES Powder-Free Nitrile Exam Gloves (MG3002) in opaque blue with textured fingertips are the pick for higher-risk contact, chemotherapy handling, and anyone with a latex sensitivity — nitrile resists punctures and chemicals better and gives a more secure grip. The MediGuard Vinyl Synthetic Exam Gloves, clear and smooth in sizes small through extra-large (MSV511H through 6MSV514), are the economical everyday option for short-duration, lower-risk tasks like general patient handling, food prep, and light cleanup. All MediGuard gloves are powder-free and latex-free, which reduces allergy concerns and protein-related reactions across both staff and patients.

A note for California buyers: several vinyl SKUs (the 6MSV series) are formulated and stocked specifically for sale in California to meet state requirements — check the product listing before ordering if you're outside CA.

Sizing is the other decision point. Ordering a full range — small for tighter-fitting hands, medium and large as your workhorse sizes, extra-large for larger hands — cuts down on wasted gloves from poor fit and keeps tactile sensitivity where you need it. Buying by the case keeps per-glove cost low and your dispensers full.
