Dermacool 1% Menthol Aqueous Cream Tube

 

This menthol aqueous cream provides cooling relief for irritated and itchy skin conditions. The 1% menthol concentration delivers a gentle cooling sensation that helps soothe discomfort associated with various skin conditions including eczema and dermatitis.

The aqueous cream base acts as both a treatment and moisturiser, helping to maintain skin hydration whilst delivering the active cooling ingredient. This dual-action approach makes it suitable for regular use on sensitive skin areas.

 

How Menthol Provides Cooling Relief

 

Menthol works by activating cold-sensitive receptors in your skin, creating a cooling sensation that can help reduce the perception of itching and irritation. This cooling effect occurs without actually lowering skin temperature, making it a safe and effective way to manage skin discomfort.

The aqueous cream base ensures the menthol is delivered evenly across the skin surface whilst providing essential moisture. This combination helps restore your skin's natural barrier function whilst providing symptomatic relief.

 

Who Can Benefit from This Cooling Cream

 

This cooling cream eczema treatment is suitable for adults and children over 2 years of age who experience itchy, irritated skin. It's particularly helpful for those with chronic skin conditions who need regular relief from symptoms.

The cream is appropriate for use on various skin conditions including:

  • Eczema and atopic dermatitis
  • Contact dermatitis
  • Dry, itchy skin conditions
  • Minor skin irritations

You can explore our full range of skin care products for additional treatment options that complement this cooling cream.

 

Why Choose an Aqueous Cream Base

 

The aqueous cream formulation provides a lighter, less greasy alternative to traditional ointments whilst still delivering effective moisturisation. This makes it more comfortable for daytime use and suitable for application to larger skin areas.

Unlike some heavier preparations, this aqueous cream tube format allows for easy, hygienic application without contamination of the product. The cream absorbs readily into your skin without leaving a heavy residue.

 

Storage and Clinical Suitability

 

Store this menthol cream itchy skin treatment below 25°C and keep the tube tightly closed when not in use. The cream should be used within the expiry date printed on the packaging and discarded appropriately after this time.

This medicine is suitable for long-term use when applied as directed. However, if your skin condition worsens or doesn't improve after regular use, you should consult your healthcare provider for further assessment.

This product is a medicine. Speak to your doctor or pharmacist before using if you have an underlying medical condition or are taking other medicines.

 

How to Apply Dermacool Menthol Cream

Apply a thin layer of cream to the affected skin areas up to three times daily, or as directed by your healthcare provider. Gently massage the cream into your skin until it's fully absorbed. Wash your hands thoroughly after application unless you're treating your hands.

For best results, apply the cream to clean, dry skin. You can use this treatment on both small localised areas and larger skin surfaces as needed for your condition.

Important Application Guidelines

Avoid contact with your eyes, mouth, and other mucous membranes when applying this cream. If accidental contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with clean water. Do not apply to broken or severely damaged skin unless advised by your healthcare provider.

You can use this cream alongside other prescribed treatments for your skin condition, but allow time between applications of different products. If you're unsure about combining treatments, consult your pharmacist for guidance.
