fat (purified lanolin), cetyl alcohol, cetostearyl alcohol, and
chlorocresol which may cause skin reactions such as
contact dermatitis (a rash or itching in some cases).
How to use Drapolene
• The effected area should be washed and dried thoroughly,
paying particular attention to the folds of the skin.
• Nappy rash – apply Drapolene evenly at each nappy change.

If the skin condition does not improve or becomes worse,
talk to your doctor, nurse or pharmacist.
