aulatin fatty ointment 30g

Highlights

Fatty cream is a non-greasy emollient or moisturiser, used to treat dry skin conditions such as eczema.

When applied to the skin, it provides a layer of oil on the surface of the skin, which traps water beneath it and prevents water evaporating from the skin surface. In this way it helps to retain moisture on the skin and reduce dryness. Read more about emollients and moisturisers.

Description

Directions For Use

Wash your hands before applying fatty cream.

It is best to apply fatty cream immediately after drying yourself from washing, bathing or showering, while the skin is still slightly damp. 

Apply fatty cream in a downward motion, in the direction of hair growth and gently massage into your skin. Avoid rubbing. Apply the cream to all of your skin, not just the area with eczema.

Precautions

Fatty cream rarely causes side effects. If you have signs of sensitivity or an allergic reaction such as red, itchy skin, tell your doctor. This may be confused with a flare of your eczema or dermatitis.
