Metanium Nappy Rash Ointment 30g is available in Lotions
Metanium Ointment is specifically formulated to soothe and effectively treat nappy rash. Even the most absorbent nappy leaves some moisture on a baby's delicate new skin. A baby left in a dirty nappy for too long may also develop nappy rash. Nappy rash can appear on the bottoms of babies with particularly sensitive skin, even if the nappy is changed frequently. The most common cause of nappy rash is from micro-organisms in baby's faeces coming into contact with urine to produce ammonia. This causes a change in the pH levels of the skin and the resulting irritation which can lead to nappy rash. A baby's skin is nearly half as thin as that of adults and therefore more delicate and prone to damage. Metanium Ointment is specifically formulated to soothe and effectively treat nappy rash. Metanium Ointment is a protective ointment that can be used at every nappy change, and especially at bedtime when your baby will not be changed for a while. Metanium Ointment rubs easily into the skin and creates a barrier between baby's delicate skin and the irritants in urine and faeces, helping to treat and prevent nappy rash.

My 22 month old daughter has never really suffered from nappy rash, but after a 5 week spell of nasty teething, UTI's and ear infections, she started getting nappy rash on top of everything else, I suspect from being completely run down, poor thing. After trying the usual Sudacrem, then Bepanthen I was recommended this, I was a day away from taking her to the doctors for something with steriods to try and clear it. WOW is all I can say. It looks like evil stuff - bright yellow, but inoffensive smelling so not unpleasant or medicinal. As well as using the Metanium I did the following:
1. Stopped using wipes (not even "sensitive" ones)
2. Used cotton wool and warm water only to clean her when changing.
3. Let her "air dry" or use a soft dry flannel if no time to "air dry" (clean one at each change)
4. Change nappy every 2 hours during the day whether she needed it or not.
5. Let the cream dry on a bit before I put the nappy on so it didn't just wipe off...
