Epaderm Junior Ointment

Epaderm Junior Ointment 125g | Eczema Ointment For Kids Epaderm Junior Ointment is a highly viscous, 3-in-1 emollient clinically indicated for the management of severe dry skin conditions, pediatric eczema, and psoriasis. Specially prepared to support the treatment of fragile infant skin barriers, this intensive baby eczema ointment offers versatile multi-purpose utility: it functions as a direct leave-on moisturizer, a non-foaming skin cleanser, and a soothing bath additive. To maximize biocompatibility and prevent inflammatory flares on hypersensitive skin, the formulation is entirely preservative-free, fragrance-free, coloring-free, and sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) free. The therapeutic framework of this intensive Epaderm Junior ointment relies on an anhydrous, lipid-rich compound that forms a robust, occlusive physical layer over the epidermis. This layer significantly restricts transepidermal water loss (TEWL) while shielding the skin matrix against external environmental allergens and microbial irritants. Formulated with pure, non-toxic ingredients, it is suitable for infants of all ages, including newborns suffering from acute dry skin. Presenting the treatment in the standard epaderm ointment 125g tub provides a practical, portable size for maintaining consistent day-to-night barrier protection. Key Features: 3-in-1 Therapeutic Function: Operates efficiently as a leave-on emollient, a protective skin cleanser, and an intensive moisturizing bath additive. Advanced Occlusive Defense: Forms a highly durable, lipid-rich surface layer that seals in moisture to relieve severely cracked or flaking skin. Preservative-Free Formulation: Prepared entirely without water or artificial preservatives, drastically lowering the incidence of contact sensitization. Safe From Birth: Formulated with minimal, biocompatible ingredients, making it safe for neonatal, infant, and toddler skincare management. Zero Foaming Detergents: Free from SLS, perfumes, and synthetic dyes, ensuring absolute compliance with highly sensitive skin profiles. Ingredients: The active anhydrous formulation is composed of a simple, highly effective blend of Liquid Paraffin, Yellow Soft Paraffin, and Cetomacrogol Emulsifying Wax. Contains no water, preservatives, or additives. How to Use: As a Leave-On Emollient: Apply a sufficient quantity of the ointment to the affected areas using long, downward strokes that follow the natural direction of hair growth. Avoid rubbing the ointment vigorously into the skin, as excessive friction can trigger histamine release and worsen localized itching. As a Skin Cleanser: Take a small amount of the ointment, work it into a smooth paste using warm water, apply gently to lift surface impurities, and rinse away completely. As a Bath Additive: Melt approximately 4g (a small spoonful) of the ointment in a cup of hot water, ensure it is fully dissolved, and mix it thoroughly into the warm bath water. Care must be taken as the ointment will make the bathtub surface slippery. Application Frequency: Apply frequently throughout the day—especially after bathing to maintain continuous lipid barrier support. Flammability Warning: This product contains paraffin. Keep treated skin, clothing, and bedding away from open flames, lit candles, or other active ignition sources due to fire risk
