Lantiseptic Skin Protectant is a high-lanolin formula which has become the product of choice in long- term care facilities for preventing and helping treat a variety of skin conditions. Lantiseptic Skin Protectant is ideal for incontinence associated dermatitis, severely dry skin, skin tears & cracks, burns and other skin injuries. Research has shown that barrier ointments containing lanolin and
petrolatum – the active ingredients in Lantiseptic Skin Protectant – are
more effective and longer-lasting in maintaining hydration and skin
integrity.
Uses:
- To help protect ulcer-prone skin – The
moisturizing, emollient nature of the Lantiseptic Original ointment
maintains a superior environment for the healing process of stage I and
II ulcers.
- To prevent Incontinence Associated Dermatitis – Lantiseptic
is an effective skin protectant where urine, feces or intestinal
contents irritate the skin. It should be applied to clean dry skin in
sufficient quantities to act as a barrier. Its emollient action also
will help protect the skin and speed healing.
- To help heal reddened or cracked skin – The
soothing, moisturizing and protective properties of Lantiseptic make it
well suited to the care of reddened or cracked skin. Specific
applications should be adapted to the nature of the injury. Reddened
skin will often clear overnight.
- To help treat burns and other skin injuries – Lantiseptic
is not intended as a primary burn therapy but its protectant and
emollient actions make it a useful addition when treating burns and
other skin injuries.
- To help prevent calluses – Lantiseptic keeps skin pliable and softens hardened skin to help treat and prevent calluses.
