Product Description
Sudocrem Antiseptic Healing Cream 250g For Nappy Rash, Ezcema & Surface Wounds
Sudocrem Antiseptic Healing Cream 250g is the standard everyday size of this well-known multi-purpose cream, sized for a single household to keep on hand for the long haul rather than running through in a few weeks or sitting unused as a bulk spare. It's licensed to treat eight skin conditions, nappy rash, eczema, acne, cuts and grazes, minor burns, sunburn, bedsores and chilblains, so one tub covers a genuinely wide range of everyday skin complaints across the whole family.
At 250g, it strikes a practical middle ground between the smaller 60g tub, better suited to a change bag or travel kit, and the 400g family size aimed at households getting through it quickly. For most homes using Sudocrem regularly but not constantly, the 250g size is the one that tends to get used up before it's time-expired rather than left half full.
Key Features:
- Treats 8 skin conditions. One tub for nappy rash, eczema, acne, cuts and grazes, minor burns, sunburn, bedsores and chilblains.
- Everyday standard size. A practical middle ground between the travel-sized 60g and the bulk 400g tub.
- Suitable for all ages. Gentle enough to use from birth, and just as suitable for older children and adults.
- Visible results within 24 hours. Based on a SURE study of over 2,000 respondents.
- UK's number one nappy rash cream. Trusted by parents for over 90 years.
How Sudocrem Works
Sudocrem's formula relies on a small number of active ingredients, each doing a different job rather than one ingredient doing everything.
Zinc oxide, the largest active component at 15.29% w/w, helps reduce fluid loss from the skin and supports the skin's own barrier while it repairs itself. Hypoallergenic lanolin works as an emollient, softening the skin and easing dryness or irritation. Benzyl alcohol, together with benzyl benzoate and benzyl cinnamate, gives the cream a mild local anaesthetic and antiseptic action, which is part of why it tends to ease soreness as well as treat the underlying skin condition.
Together, these ingredients create a protective, breathable layer over the affected skin, shielding it from further irritation while reducing the redness and swelling that often come with nappy rash, eczema flare-ups, minor burns and the other conditions it's licensed for.
