Sudocrem Antiseptic Healing Cream, 250g

Sudocrem Antiseptic Healing Cream is a multi-purpose zinc oxide-based cream with a long history of clinical use for nappy rash, minor wounds, and inflammatory skin conditions. The formula combines Zinc Oxide for its barrier, astringent, and healing properties, Benzyl Alcohol for mild antisepsis, and a rich emollient base that soothes and protects irritated skin. Sudocrem has been one of the most widely used nappy rash creams in Europe for decades, and its multi-purpose utility extends beyond the nappy area to minor burns, cuts, eczema, and general skin irritation.

Benefits

• Zinc Oxide at 15.25% concentration creates a dense, water-repellent protective layer over the nappy area that physically blocks the prolonged contact of urine and faecal enzymes with the inflamed skin, allowing the skin barrier to recover under the protective cover
• Zinc's astringent and anti-inflammatory properties directly reduce the redness, swelling, and discomfort of nappy rash and minor skin irritations beyond the barrier protection function
• Benzyl Alcohol provides mild antiseptic coverage against the secondary bacterial colonization that can complicate nappy rash and excoriated skin, reducing the risk of infection during the healing phase
• The rich emollient base softens and soothes the damaged skin underneath the protective layer, providing comfort and supporting the skin's own repair process alongside the active ingredients
• The 250g tub provides an extended supply that covers both the liberal nappy area application needed for effective treatment and the general household uses of Sudocrem as a first-aid cream for minor wounds, burns, and skin irritations

How to Use

• For nappy rash: apply a thin layer to the clean, dry nappy area at each nappy change using a circular motion
• For minor burns and wounds: apply a thin layer to the affected area and cover with a clean dressing if needed
• For eczema and general skin irritation: apply a thin layer to affected areas as often as needed
• A little goes a long way - a thin layer is sufficient and more effective than a thick application
• Apply with clean hands or a clean spatula to maintain product hygiene
• Clean the nappy area gently before each application - do not rub aggressively on inflamed skin
• Consult a physician if nappy rash does not improve within 3 days of consistent treatment or if the skin becomes weepy or shows signs of infection
