Product Information

Full details

The Care ViraSoothe Chickenpox Relief Cooling Gel is designed for infants and all ages suffering from the discomfort of chickenpox. Its key benefit is providing immediate, non-greasy, cooling relief from itching and irritation. A potential caveat is that it is a non-medicated product, meaning it does not treat the underlying viral infection but focuses on symptomatic relief. This 50g gel utilizes osmotic technology to hydrate the skin, reduce the urge to scratch, and aid in the healing process, making it a versatile addition for various skin irritations.

Ensure the gel is applied generously to the itchy areas. Reapply as needed, up to the recommended frequency. Consider other comfort measures like cool baths.
