What are the causes of diaper rash?
The environment in a diaper after it has been soiled can become quite irritating to the skin. Diaper rash can be caused by a combination of factors that impede the skin's barrier functions and then cause inflammation and irritation. Some of the factors include the following:
over-hydration of the skin due to wetness in the diaper
chemical irritants present in diaper contents including ammonia, urea, uric acid and various enzymes
These factors can work together over time to break down skin and cause diaper rash.
How does Desitin prevent diaper rash?
Desitin or Desitin Creamy can help prevent diaper rash by forming a barrier between your baby's delicate skin and these irritants.
How often should you use Desitin on your child?
Use of Desitin or Desitin Creamy at every diaper change can protect your baby from diaper rash by forming a barrier between wetness and irritants and your baby's skin.
When should I use Desitin?
If diaper rash is present or at the first sign of redness, chafing, or minor skin irritation in the diaper area, you should use Desitin. Change wet and soiled diaper promptly, cleanse the diaper area, and allow it to dry. Apply Desitin or Desitin Creamy liberally or as often as necessary, with each diaper change.
What is the difference between Desitin Ointment and Desitin Creamy?
Desitin Ointment is specifically formulated with 40% zinc oxide in a base that contains Norwegian cod liver oil, lanolin and petrolatum to treat diaper rash and provide long-lasting protection. Desitin Creamy is a lighter 10% zinc oxide formula that glides on smoothly, wipes off gently, and has a fresh scent.
What happens if someone accidentally ingests Desitin?
Keep calm. We recommend that they contact their doctor and/or poison control center right away.
There is a nut allergy in my family. Can we use Desitin?
Desitin products do not contain any nut oils or nut ingredients.
Has Desitin Ointment been clinically tested?
Desitin has been clinically tested and shown to provide relief to over 90% of babies with diaper rash within 24 hours. In addition, more pediatricians recommend Desitin for diaper rash than any other diaper rash ointment. If your child has diaper rash, use Desitin as directed at every diaper change. You should see an improvement in the diaper rash within 48 hours. If the rash has not improved in 72 hours, it may be a condition other than common diaper rash and you should consult your physician.
