Diprobase Cream

Diprobase directions

Diprobase eczema cream is for use on the skin only and is suitable for use in children and adults to treat itchy, dry, irritated skin caused by skin issues such as eczema.

For both children and adults, apply enough Diprobase cream to cover the affected area with a thin layer. Massage the advanced cream gently into the skin in the direction that the hair lies.

Diprobase can be applied as often as is needed to keep your skin moisturised. Some people may find they need to apply the protective cream up to 4 times a day.

How many times a day can you use Diprobase?

You can use Diprobase eczema cream as often as needed to keep your skin moisturised and comfortable. For many people, applying the cream up to 4 times a day provides the best results, especially if your skin is very dry or irritated. Remember, it's important to apply a thin layer each time, covering all the affected areas gently. Listen to your skin's needs; you may need to adjust how often you apply Diprobase based on how your skin feels and responds.
