Treatment and prevention of dry, chapped, or irritated skin; diaper rash; minor burns; skin irritation from radiation therapy; and general skin barrier protection. Often used in wound care and for conditions causing skin breakdown.
Dimethicone forms a hydrophobic barrier on the skin surface that helps retain moisture and protects against external irritants. Allantoin promotes skin cell regeneration and has mild keratolytic properties that help soften and soothe the skin. Together they help restore and maintain the skin's natural protective barrier.
For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes and open wounds. Discontinue use if irritation or allergic reaction occurs. Not intended for deep or puncture wounds. Consult a healthcare provider for use in infants, during pregnancy, or if symptoms persist. Apply as directed, typically to clean, dry skin.
