This medication is designed to moisturize and treat or prevent conditions like dry, rough, scaly, and itchy skin, as well as minor irritations such as diaper rash and skin burns from radiation therapy. Emollients, the active ingredients in this product, work by softening and hydrating the skin, which reduces itching and flaking. Some formulations contain zinc oxide or white petrolatum to specifically shield the skin from irritation caused by moisture. Dry skin occurs due to a loss of water in the skin's outer layer. Emollients and moisturizers create an oily barrier on the skin's surface to retain moisture. Common emollients include petrolatum, lanolin, mineral oil, and dimethicone. Additionally, humectants like glycerin, lecithin, and propylene glycol attract water to the skin's surface. Many products also contain ingredients such as urea and alpha hydroxy acids (lactic, citric, and glycolic acids) that help remove dead skin cells, improve water retention, and make the skin smoother and softer.
