Indications

Oilatum Junior Cream is intended for use in dry, eczema-prone skin, as well as atopic and contact dermatitis, senile pruritis, and ichthyosis.

⚠️ Always consult a registered physician before taking any medicine.

Pharmacology

Light Liquid Paraffin and White Soft Paraffin work as emollients, coating the skin with a protective layer that cuts down water loss and helps keep it adequately moisturised. Polyvinyl pyrrolidone adds to this by making the oily film left on the skin more durable.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Pregnancy: There is insufficient data on the use of topical Oilatum Cream in pregnant women. Systemic exposure to WSP-LLP is expected to be minimal, so effects during pregnancy are considered unlikely.

Lactation: Whether Oilatum Cream is excreted in human milk has not been established. As systemic exposure is minimal, the risk to the infant is considered low. Patients are advised to make sure any residual product is fully removed before breastfeeding.

⚠️ Talk to your doctor before taking any medicine during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.

Dosage Reference

⚠️ Reference ranges from official sources only. Consult your doctor for personalized dosing.
