Uses of Emolene Cream

  • Ichthyosis

  • Atopic dermatitis as an emollient
  • Humectant
  • Helps soften
  • Hydrate rough
  • Scaly skin

Benefits of Emolene Cream

In Dry skin
Emolene puts moisture back into dry skin and seals it in, relieving tightness, flaking and roughness.
In Eczema
Emolene keeps eczema-prone skin soft and supple, which reduces flares and the need for steroid creams when used every day.
In Skin barrier repair
Emolene restores the skin's natural protective layer so it holds water better and reacts less to irritants.
In Itching due to dryness
Emolene relieves the itch that comes from dry skin by rehydrating it, which also protects the skin from scratch damage.

How Emolene Cream works

Propylene glycol acts as a humectant that attracts and retains water in the stratum corneum. It hydrates and softens the skin and helps restore the skin barrier, reducing scaling and dryness.

How to take Emolene Cream

Apply a thin layer to affected areas 1-3 times daily or as advised, especially after bathing. For external use only; avoid contact with eyes and broken/infected skin unless prescribed.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

If you miss a dose of Emolene Cream, apply it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine is not a realistic risk from a moisturiser used on the skin. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Emolene Cream

Most side effects of Emolene are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

  • Mild burning
  • stinging
  • itching
  • redness
  • irritation
  • allergic contact dermatitis (rare)

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Quick tips for Emolene Cream

  • Apply Emolene Cream immediately after bathing, while the skin is still slightly damp, to help lock in moisture.
  • Use it at least twice daily or as often as needed to keep the skin soft and hydrated.
  • Apply a generous but even layer over dry areas; gently spread without rubbing harshly.
  • Use mild, soap-free cleansers instead of harsh soaps, as they can worsen dryness.
  • Avoid very hot showers or baths, as hot water can strip natural oils from the skin.
