Just wondering what types of ointment other parents use for diaper over-hasty and do they work?
Answer: you don't have to spend money on those expensive ointment. their main ingredient is petrolem jelly. a tub of vaseline is cheap and creates a sufficient barrage between the skin and irritants.
They all work. I dont close to the smell of Desinex, so I use Balmex or Aveno.
anything with zinc within it, works like a charm!
Triple Paste, it is usually at the rear the counter at the pharmacy.
You have to ask for it but you don't have need of a prescription.
Worked great when my daughter was a kid, Doctor recommended, has approaching 10% more medication than regular brand over the counter stuff.
I use Penaten cream. It provides an occlusive barrier so that doesn`t matter what you find in the diapers (foeces, urine, soap residue if you're using cloth diapers) is separated from the skin protecting it from further irritation. If you don't approaching the mild fragrance, you can get zinc oil at any local pharmacy. It also works well as a complete sunscreen. When the babe-in-arms gets elder you can even get coloured ones which are fun for the kids and inspire them to protect their skin from sun damage.
I use Desitin cream... I don't strictness for the way it smells, but it get the job done!! If it isn't a severe satchel, then I use the Desitin Creamy-- it smells MUCH better! But it contains smaller quantity medicine than the regular style.
sudacrem...works on everything! We use Desitin and it works great. It's the first thing I tried and it really seem to do the job. I also tried California kid Diaper Area wash and that works pretty upright too. Aquaphor is good for regular rashes.
