Skin Care for Incontinence

3. Cavilon Durable Barrier Cream – Incontinence can lead to some very uncomfortable side effects, like incontinence dermatitis (nappy rash), maceration and bacterial infections.

The unique formula provides a breathable barrier to promote skin health in patients at risk for skin damage from incontinence. Unlike many barrier products, Cavilon Durable Barrier Cream is both durable and concentrated, so you’ll use less per application than typical creams and ointments. To be used alongside a good hygiene routine.

They can be used for incontinence, gardening, bed, bathing and after eating. The Ocean wipes are hypoallergenic and are alcohol-free, so they’re gentle on skin.
