Description
Dynarex LanaShield is a specialized, medical-grade skin protectant designed to treat and prevent skin irritation associated with moisture, friction, and environmental stressors. Formulated with an exceptionally high concentration of 50% Lanolin, it creates a long-lasting, breathable barrier that promotes skin health and accelerates the healing of compromised tissue.
Key Features and Benefits
-
High-Concentration Lanolin (50%): Provides a superior moisture barrier compared to standard ointments, effectively "sealing" skin while allowing it to breathe.
-
Advanced Moisture Barrier: Specifically designed to protect the skin from the damaging effects of incontinence, perspiration, and wound drainage.
-
Rapid Relief: Soothes chapped, cracked, or reddened skin on contact, making it ideal for patients with sensitive or geriatric skin.
-
Friction Reduction: Helps prevent skin breakdown (decubitus ulcers) by reducing friction between the skin and linens or clothing.
-
Easy Application: The ointment spreads smoothly and adheres well to moist skin, providing consistent coverage for extended periods.
