Epaderm® Cream. Moisturise and cleanse dry skin
Using Epaderm Cream as an emollient
Healthcare guidelines recommend that emollients should form the basis of atopic eczema management and should always be used, even when the atopic eczema is clear.
Children will usually require 250g per week. Children over 10 years of age and adults usually require 600g per week for application to the whole body, twice a day.
Using Epaderm Cream as a skin cleanser
Ordinary soaps or products that contain detergents increase water loss from the skin and make dry skin conditions worse.
Using Epaderm Cream as a skin cleanser ensures that dry skin can be properly washed, without losing additional moisture or having to deal with the problems that common soap additives might produce.
Dispense a small amount onto your hand, lather under warm water and use as a normal soap.
Epaderm Cream is suitable for all ages, including babies, and cannot be overused – in fact, the more you use, the better!
