Dermol Cream 100g is an antimicrobial emollient cream for use in the treatment
and management of the dryness and itching (pruritus) which are common features
of skin complaints like eczema and dermatitis.
The emollients form a barrier within the skin surface,
trapping the moisture in deeper layers of skin and reducing drying.
The antimicrobial ingredients combat the aggravating bacteria
already present on the skin which make certain types of eczema worse.
Dermol Cream is also designed to be used as a soap substitute.
This is advantageous because ordinary toiletry soaps can make dry skin worse by
removing its natural oils.
