Soothing Relief for Skin Irritations
Bell's Calamine Lotion 100ml is a trusted, mildly astringent and anti-itch (antipruritic) medication. Imported from the UK, it is a staple in many Nigerian households for providing fast cooling relief from various skin discomforts.
What is Calamine Lotion used for?
This pink lotion is specially formulated to treat:
- Sunburn: Cools the skin and reduces redness after sun exposure.
- Chickenpox & Rashes: Helps stop the itchy or "pepperish" sensation associated with skin rashes.
- Insect Bites & Stings: Provides sharp relief from the irritation caused by mosquitoes and other insects.
- Minor Dermatitis: Soothes inflamed skin and promotes healing.
How it Works
The lotion works through evaporation. As the water in the lotion evaporates from your skin, it creates a cooling effect that helps to reduce pain and swelling. The active ingredients, Calamine and Zinc Oxide, act as mild antiseptics to protect the skin and provide a protective barrier.
How to Apply
- Shake the bottle thoroughly before every use to ensure the ingredients are well mixed.
- Clean the affected area of the skin.
- Apply the lotion gently using a piece of clean cotton wool or a soft pad.
- Allow the lotion to dry completely on the skin.
If you have severe skin conditions or persistent irritation, we encourage you to contact a GoMed pharmacist for professional advice.
