What is Zinc Oxide used for?
Labisan, a zinc‑oxide based sunscreen, is used to protect the skin from ultraviolet radiation. - Sun protection: helps prevent erythema and sunburn caused by UV exposure. - Prevention of UV‑induced skin damage: reduces risk of photodamage and premature aging. - Adjunct to dermatologic procedures: provides a physical barrier during post‑procedure care to limit UV‑related irritation.

Common Side Effects: - Skin irritation: mild redness or itching at the application site. - Dryness: temporary feeling of tightness or flaking. - Contact dermatitis: allergic response in sensitive individuals.
Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Severe allergic reaction: swelling, hives, or difficulty breathing. - Persistent rash: lesions that do not resolve after discontinuation. - Eye irritation: if product contacts the ocular surface.
What precautions apply to Zinc Oxide?
When using Labisan, consider the following precautions to ensure safe and effective use. - Application area: apply a thin, even layer to all exposed skin 15 minutes before sun exposure. - Re‑application: repeat every two hours, or after swimming, sweating, or towel drying. - Sensitive skin: perform a patch test on a small area before full use. - Children: supervise use in children under six months; consult a healthcare professional. - Storage: Store at room temperature below 25 °C: keep in original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.
What does Zinc Oxide interact with?
