What is Liquid Paraffin?

Excipial Liquid Paraffin is a topical emollient designed for cutaneous use, offering intensive moisturization for dry or irritated skin. Ideal for maintaining skin hydration and barrier function.

What is Liquid Paraffin used for?

Excipial Liquid Paraffin is primarily used for its emollient properties, helping to soothe and moisturize dry, rough, or irritated skin. It can be applied to areas prone to dryness, such as elbows, knees, and hands. This product is often recommended for conditions where skin hydration is crucial, such as eczema or psoriasis, though it is not a treatment for these conditions.

What are the side effects of Liquid Paraffin?

When applied to the skin, Excipial Liquid Paraffin forms a protective barrier that helps to lock in moisture. This can lead to softer, smoother skin and may reduce the appearance of dryness and flakiness. Some users report a reduction in itching and irritation associated with dry skin.

What precautions apply to Liquid Paraffin?

Excipial Liquid Paraffin is for external use only. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. If irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional. Keep out of reach of children to prevent accidental ingestion.

What does Liquid Paraffin interact with?

Excipial Liquid Paraffin is generally considered safe for topical use. However, it may interact with other topical medications. Always consult a healthcare professional before combining it with other treatments. Avoid using it with products that contain alcohol, as this may increase the risk of skin irritation.
