What is Eucerin?

Eucerin intensive lotion is a moisturiser which contains the active ingredient Urea.

It can be used to treat a number of conditions such as eczema, hyperkeratosis and similar condition which cause dry, flaky and itchy skin.

Dry skin is characterised by flaky, dry, itchy and discomforting skin. It occurs when more water evaporated from the upper levels of the skin.


How does Eucerin work?

The active ingredient of Eucerin, called Urea, is a compound which absorbs and retains water.

When Eucerin is applied to the skin, the Urea is absorbed through the outermost layer of skin, known as the stratum corneum. Once absorbed, urea draws surrounding moisture and retains it.

Additionally, Eucerin provides a protective layer over the skin's surface, preventing moisture from escaping and keeping the epidermis hydrated.


How do I use Eucerin?

Eucerin is applied to the skin twice daily.

Before you apply Eucerin, make sure your skin is clean and dry.

Apply a small amount of the cream either to your hand or the area of dry skin. Massage the cream gently into your skin until all of it has been absorbed.

Wash your hands straight after applying the cream. This will prevent you from accidentally getting the cream in your eyes.


Eucerin side effects and cautions

Before you start using Eucerin, you must read the patient information leaflet enclosed with your medicine.

You can read the patient information leaflet for Eucerin Intensive online from the Health Product Regulatory Authority (HPRA).

Side effects

All medicines carry the risk of side effects, though not everybody experiences them. Knowing the side effects to look out for is important to your care.

Side effects of Eucerin include:

  • Burning
  • Irritation
  • Itching
  • Redness
  • Stinging

These mild side effects usually happen at the site of the application and usually do not warrant the need to stop using the product.

Don't be afraid of speaking to your doctor about the possible side effects. If you experience any side effects, even if they are mild, you should report them to your doctor as soon as possible. Your doctor may be able to advise you on how to reduce your chances of side effects.

Allergies

Do not use Eucerin Intensive if you are allergic to Urea or any of the other ingredients listed in the patient information leaflet.

If you notice the signs and symptoms of an allergic reaction after applying Eucerin, you should stop using the cream and talk to your doctor immediately. In cases where the reaction is severe, seek immediate medical attention by going to your nearest A&E department. Take the medicine with you, so the doctors know how to treat you effectively.

Other safety information

Always read the patient information leaflet before you use Eucerin lotion.

Inform our medical team of all medicines you are currently taking, including those prescribed by your doctor, or bought over the counter, as well as health and herbal supplements.

Do not use Eucerin past the expiry date printed on the packaging.

Never throw away medicines via household or water waste. Take any unwanted or expired medicines to your local pharmacy and ask them to dispose of them for you. This can help to protect the environment.

Always store Eucerin cream out of sight and reach from children and pets.

Never share your medicines with others - even if they are experiencing the same symptoms or have been diagnosed with the same condition.

If you are unsure about how much lotion you should be using, speak to your doctor or a pharmacist.

Can I use Eucerin while pregnant or breastfeeding?
