RUGBY LABORATORIES Zinc Oxide Ointment - 1 Lb

Most effective, hypoallergenic, no-nonsense ointment for treating diaper rash. Most, if not all doctors recommend a zinc oxide base diaper ointment/cream to treat and prevent diaper rash. This one has three ingredients: Acitive ingredient: 20% Zinc Oxide Inactive Ingredients: mineral oil, petrolatum (petroleum). This product does what a diaper cream is suppose to do without fragrances, or "moisturizers" that can turn rancid. This product has done what the Burt's Bees product couldn't do. Nor could maximum strength Desitin with it's 40% Zinc Oxide content. This is the only product that doesn't cause excess irritation for babies with sensitive skin and allergies to fragrances, etc. There is no smell to this product at all. The fact that this product is made by a reputable pharmaceutical company is a bonus. This stuff adheres to skin to block out moisture, but it is easily wiped off fingers after application. Thank you for making this product available.

i originally bought this for my chickens, but ended up using it for my male dogs who i have to belly band 24/7 unless i have them blocked off outside in their fenced in yard. it works great in preventing diaper rash and keeps their skin from breaking down. i highly recommend this stuff! i've even used it on my belly roll flap in between and it clears up the rash over night. ( still working on that belly roll).....lol!

I have a paint horse with a lot of white that sunburns very easily. My equine vet told me to use a diaper or sunburn product containing zinc oxide on her face and nose. I tried name brands of diaper rash medicine and a sunblock product. Both were not only very hard to apply and spread out due o being so thick but averaging $10 per 2.5 - 3 ounce tube the cost was high. After 2 or 3 months fighting those products I came across this. After the first day of use I contacted my vet to tell her that if she has other clients needing a zinc oxide product to try this. This product is creamy and easy to apply. What took me 6 - 8 minutes before I can now do easily in 2 minutes. This item was some where around $10.75 for a 16 ounce jar or you can get a 4 pack for around $28 making it a super value when compared to the other products. I will continue to buy this.

We have struggled for years with my husband's eczema and have tried everything in the world. I don't know why I had never heard about zinc oxide, but when I did I got this immediately. It works pretty well. I feel like it protects the skin and keeps it hydrated and smooth, not dried out and itchy, which causes more scratching. It's been a month and is not healed completely, and probably whatever the root cause has not been affected, but it does make the skin much better immediately (not cracked and bleeding), and that is worth it. He also has been taking a zinc supplement every day.

great for prevention of pressure ulcers on bedridden patients.
