Dermol Wash is a soap substitute for those with dry skin conditions such as eczema and dermatitis.
It is ideal for anyone whose skin becomes irritated by regular soap and is looking for a cleanser that is kind to sensitive skin.
Dermol Wash contains 4 active ingredients which are:
Isopropyl myristate and liquid paraffin are emollients that form a protective barrier over the skin. They help hydrate the skin by locking moisture in.
Benzalkonium chloride and chlorhexidine dihydrochloride are antimicrobials that kill harmful bacteria that can irritate dry skin. They also help prevent infection if the skin is broken after scratching.
Always use Dermol Wash exactly as described in the patient information leaflet or as your doctor / pharmacist has told you.
Use this product as you would regular soap or shower gel. It will not foam or lather.
Rinse thoroughly after using.
Pat the skin dry with a towel. Do not rub, as this may lead to irritation.
