Sudocrem is an antiseptic healing cream that treats and soothes various skin conditions like nappy rashes, eczema, bed sores, and more. The antiseptic cream consists of a water-repellent base that forms a protective film, thus preventing skin irritants like moisture, detergents, urine, and stools from coming in contact with the skin.
For nappy rash, Sudocrem is clinically proven to soothe and heal your baby’s delicate skin and works in three simple ways:
An emollient soothes sore or inflamed skin.
Its ingredients are recognized for their healing properties.
A mild local anaesthetic helps to ease pain and irritation.
For other symptoms, the treatment provides gentle yet effective relief from cuts, grazes, minor burns, acne, and eczema. It works by forming a protective layer over the vulnerable area, reducing the risk of infection, and soothing discomfort.
You do not need a prescription for Sudocrem. However, you will be asked to complete a short medical questionnaire by your Chemist-4-U pharmacist before we can take your order. This includes some simple questions that all pharmacies are legally required to ask before supplying this kind of product. This helps our pharmacy team to be sure that this product is the best choice for you.
Up to a third of babies and toddlers have nappy rash at any one time. It usually doesn’t develop in newborns, but all babies can get nappy rash.
Nappy rash can be caused by:
Your baby’s skin being in contact with wee or poo (stools) for a long time.
The nappy rubbing against your baby’s skin.
Not cleaning the nappy area or changing the nappy often enough.
Soap, detergent, or bubble bath.
Alcohol-based baby wipes.
Your baby recently taking antibiotics.
There may be red patches on your baby’s bottom, or the whole area may be red. Their skin may look sore and feel hot to touch, and there may be spots, pimples, or blisters.
Sudocrem should only be used as directed. Apply the ointment conservatively to the affected area and massage in circular movements until it has been absorbed into the skin. It can be applied two to three times per day.
