Description

Epaderm Ointment is a versatile 3-in-1 emollient designed to manage and treat dry skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis. Its unique formulation allows it to function effectively as a moisturiser, skin cleanser, and bath additive, providing comprehensive care for sensitive skin.

Key Benefits

• Fragrance-Free and Preservative-Free: Epaderm Ointment is free from fragrances, colourings, preservatives, and parabens, making it suitable for even the most sensitive skin types. It contains no steroids, sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS), or animal-derived ingredients, ensuring gentle care without irritation.

• Water-Free Formulation: The absence of water in its formulation helps create a protective barrier on the skin, aiding in moisture retention and supporting the skin’s natural barrier function. This makes it ideal for use in both wet and dry wrapping therapies for atopic eczema.

• Clinically Proven: The ointment is clinically proven to restore the skin’s natural barrier, providing relief and protection for all ages, including babies and children.

Ingredients

• Liquid Paraffin Ph. Eur.
• Cetomacrogol Emulsifying Wax BP (contains Cetostearyl Alcohol and Macrogol Cetostearyl Ether 22)
• Yellow Soft Paraffin BP

These ingredients work together to provide a soothing and effective treatment for dry skin.

Usage Instructions

• As an Emollient: Apply liberally to affected areas as often as needed, especially after washing or swimming. Apply in the direction of hair growth to minimise the risk of blocking hair follicles.

• As a Skin Cleanser: Use as a soap substitute by lathering under warm water and applying to the skin.

• As a Bath Additive: Melt the required amount in hot water, mix, allow to cool, and add to the bath. Take care as it may make bath surfaces slippery.

Application Guidelines

For adults, typical application amounts are provided for different body areas, with one measure equating to 4g. Children under 10 should use half the adult amount.

Safety Precautions

• For external use only
• Avoid contact with eyes
• Do not use if allergic to any ingredients
• Keep away from naked flames due to increased flammability of fabrics in contact with the ointment
• Store below 25°C in a dry place
• Keep out of reach of children
