Is it a treatment or a preventative measure?
Drapolene Cream helps both to prevent nappy rash from occurring and to treat it when it has already developed.
Troubleshooting
Rash does not improve after several days of use.
Consult a healthcare professional. While Drapolene helps prevent and soothe, persistent or severe rashes may require medical advice or a different treatment.
Baby experiences redness or irritation after application.
Discontinue use immediately. This could indicate a sensitivity. Clean the area gently and consider a patch test on a small area of skin before reintroducing, or seek an alternative product.
Cream seems difficult to spread.
Ensure the skin is completely dry before application. A very thin layer is usually sufficient; apply more if needed, but aim for an even coating.
