Dermol 500 Lotion

Dermal Laboratories

Description

Dermol 500 is an antimicrobial emollient for direct application onto the skin and is suitable for use as a soap substitute. It contains emollient oils (5%) in a non-greasy aqueous system, together with the well-known and effective antiseptics benzalkonium chloride and chlorhexidine dihydrochloride. Its antimicrobial properties assist in overcoming infection, whether from Staphlycoccus aureus, which often complicates eczema and associated pruritus, or secondary infection caused by scratching. As a non-ionic emollient soap substitute, it cleanses the skin, helping to remove surface debris without removing the skin’s natural oils

Indications

For the management of dry and pruritic skin conditions, especially eczema and dermatitis
