Administration
Apply this combination topical treatment regularly to affected areas as a leave-on emollient or soap substitute for all age groups. As a leave-on application, smooth gently into the skin in the direction of hair growth without vigorous rubbing. When used as a soap substitute, apply to wet skin, massage gently, and rinse off, then pat dry with a soft towel. For bath emollient versions, add directly to warm water and soak before patting dry. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Patients should avoid standard soaps as they may deactivate the antimicrobial ingredients. Due to paraffin content, advise patients to stay away from naked flames and wash dressings or clothing regularly at 60 degrees Celsius to minimize fire risk. If breastfeeding, apply sparingly to nipples only after feeds and wipe away before the next session. Use caution in individuals with acne-prone facial skin or known hypersensitivity to any component.
Side Effect
- In some very rare cases, it can cause local skin reactions (involving redness, irritation and/or itching)
- These reactions are very rare (Less than 1/10,000, based on spontaneous reporting) and may be irritant or allergic in nature. Reactions have been observed occasionally when used excessively as a leave-on application in areas of folded skin such as the anogenital area
- Use of this lotion/cream should be discontinued if the skin condition seems to look or feel worse
- Very rarely, hypersensitivity including anaphylactic reaction is possible (based on literature for chlorhexidine-containing products)
