How does AD lotio® Chronic Work:
AD lotio® Chronic contains the natural, hydrating factor, urea in a 3% concentration and ideally contains approx. 30% lipids. It further contains the anti-microbial component (octenidine). The regular supply of urea to the skin improves its hydration and hence reduces dryness. The product also contains a higher proportion of lipid components, which form a natural, occlusive, protective film on the skin. The product can also be used by pregnant and breastfeeding women and children of all ages. It can be used for newborns.
What else are some of the ingredients in this product used for if used in medicine.
How does Urea Work?
Urea is a physiological part of the skin and sweat. The content of urea in the skin (normal: 1.0 -1.4 g/100g dry weight) is drastically reduced in atopic eczema, psoriasis and aging. The result is a reduced ability to bind keratin with water. Urea is a natural hydrating factor of the keratin layer, epidermis. It has a hygroscopic (water binding) effect and it influences the binding of water on intracellular proteins. Its effect is evident in the refinement of skin relief and in soothing the skin’s surface. As a physiological agent, it has almost no side effects and can safely be used on the youngest children.

How to Use AD lotio® Chronic:
An adequate amount of the product is applied and gently rubbed onto thoroughly cleansed and dry skin. Apply 3-6 times per day, as needed. Ideally, use a medicinal, antiseptic soap free of sodium lauryl sulfate to clean the skin (for example, Cutosan® wash gel). The product can be used for newborns. The application must not only be long-term but also regular.
