FAQs

What is Bepanthen Nappy Care Ointment primarily used for?

It is used to protect babies' delicate skin from the causes of nappy rash and to aid in the natural healing of existing nappy rash.

How often should I apply Bepanthen Nappy Care Ointment?

For best results, apply a thin layer at every nappy change, especially after cleaning and drying your baby's bottom.

Can I use this ointment on a newborn baby?

Yes, Bepanthen Nappy Care Ointment is gentle enough and suitable for use on newborn babies.

Does this ointment contain any fragrances or preservatives?

Info needed: Please refer to the product packaging or manufacturer's website for a full list of ingredients and to confirm the presence of fragrances or preservatives.

How does the dual action benefit work?

The ointment works by forming a breathable protective barrier on the skin to prevent irritation, while also containing provitamin B5 (panthenol) to support the skin's natural regeneration and healing process.

Is Bepanthen Nappy Care Ointment waterproof?

While it forms a protective barrier that helps to repel water and irritants, it's not strictly 'waterproof' in the sense of being completely impervious. Its main function is to create a breathable protective layer. Reapplication after exposure to moisture is key.

What is the shelf life of the ointment once opened?

Info needed: The shelf life after opening is typically indicated by a 'period after opening' (PAO) symbol (e.g., '12M' for 12 months) on the packaging. Please check your specific tube.

Troubleshooting

Nappy rash not improving after several days of use.

If the rash persists or worsens after 2-3 days of consistent use, or if it appears infected (e.g., with pus or spreading redness), discontinue use and consult your doctor or a healthcare professional immediately.

Baby develops a new rash or irritation after using the ointment.

Although rare, some babies may be sensitive to certain ingredients. Discontinue use immediately. If the irritation persists, seek medical advice.

Ointment seems too thick or hard to spread.

Ensure the product is stored at the recommended temperature (below 25°C). If it's too cold, it may thicken. Warming it slightly in your hands before application can help make it easier to spread.
