Dynarex zinc oxide ointment is a skin protectant that helps treat and prevent diaper rash. The ointment creates a protective barrier on the skin to seal wetness, reduce friction and prevent chafed skin. This makes it ideal for diaper rash or for professionals who suffer from face mask irritation known as a mask.
What is zinc oxide ointment used for?
Zinc is very reactive, which is why it is always bound to a compound (like an oxide) and is not just in its pure, elemental form. DailyMed will provide updates and additions to the drug labeling information currently displayed on this website via its RSS feed. It is a mineral component of various pharmacological preparations used to treat diaper rash and other skin conditions, protect the epidermis, and prevent sunburn. If the skin is particularly dry, flaky, and cracked, ointments can be more helpful as they are thicker and can retain moisture on the skin for longer.
Is zinc oxide a skin protection agent?
It is known as a physical sunscreen that contains a mineral ingredient that can protect the skin from UV rays. This means that people with darker complexions may experience a cast when applying a sunscreen that contains it, which can temporarily turn their skin greyish. It is not water-soluble and therefore requires an oil or other such carrier to function effectively. Research not only shows effective sun protection, but also shows that zinc oxide promotes the growth of new tissues, heals the skin and prevents inflammation.
