What is Dermol 200 Shower Emollient? 

Dermol 200 Shower Emollient is both an antimicrobial and emollient treatment for you to apply to your skin as part of your normal showering routine. It helps to treat and prevent dry and itchy skin conditions such as eczema and dermatitis.

 

How to use this product

Always use Dermol 200 Shower Emollient exactly as described in the patient information leaflet or as your doctor / Chemist4U pharmacist has told you. For best results, you should use this product on a regular basis whenever you shower. To use the product, remove the hooked overcap and attach it to the base of the bottle for hanging in the shower. Holding the bottle upside down, gently squeeze the product into the palm of your hand. For use as a soap substitute, use Dermol 200 Shower Emollient to wash instead of ordinary soap or shower gel. It will not foam or lather like ordinary cosmetic products.

 

After washing or showering, pat the skin dry with a soft towel (avoid rubbing as this can make dry skin conditions worse). For use as a leave-on application (e.g after showering), apply Dermol 200 Shower Emollient to the affected areas. If necessary, allow time for any excess to soak in. Do not rub the skin vigorously. Reapply as often as required. If you are applying another treatment to the same areas of skin as Dermol 200 Shower Emollient, try to avoid mixing the two products. This can be achieved by applying the treatments alternately, leaving sufficient time to allow the previous application to soak in.

 

How do the active ingredients in Dermol 200 Shower Emollient help eczema?

Dermol 200 contains two active ingredients, benzalkonium chloride and chlorhexidine dihydrochloride, which are antimicrobials. These help to combat bacteria present on your skin that can make eczema worse, and prevent infection caused by scratching itchy skin.

 

Liquid paraffin and isopropyl myristate are emollients which help to soften, moisturise and protect your skin by trapping moisture in the skin and restoring the normal protective function of the skin, preventing it from drying and the irritant effects that can be caused by washing and bathing and by the soaps, foaming additives and fragrances used in ordinary skin cleansing products.



Is Dermol 200 Shower Emollient suitable for pregnant and breastfeeding women? 

Dermol 200 Shower Emollient is safe to use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, you must ask your doctor or Chemist4U pharmacist for advice before taking any new medicine.

 

When should this product not be used? 

Dermol 200 Shower Emollient may be unsuitable for certain people. Do not use this product if you are allergic to benzalkonium chloride, chlorhexidine dihydrochloride, liquid paraffin, isopropyl myristate or any of the other listed ingredients.

 

Seek emergency medical attention if you notice any signs of a severe allergic reaction, symptoms of which include swelling of the face and throat, skin rash, breathing difficulties and/or loss of consciousness. If you experience any side effects, including any not included in the patient information leaflet, you can report them using the MHRA Yellow Card Scheme.
