ZinCream Medinova ® Medinova AG What is ZinCream Medinova and when is it used? ZinCream Medinova is a soft cream paste containing zinc oxide that is easy to spread on the skin. Zinc oxide promotes wound healing and has a mild disinfectant effect. ZinCream Medinova is odorless, easy to wash off with water and adheres well even to wet skin. Thanks to its good water absorption capacity, it has a drying effect and is particularly suitable for moist and weeping skin conditions, e.g. soreness and weeping eczema. ZinCream Medinova is used in the following cases: Diaper rash and intertrigo (skin wolf) ZinCream Medinova is used to heal diaper rash (skin redness and soreness on the buttocks) and intertrigo (skin redness and weeping wounds in skin folds, also known as skin wolf). Furthermore, ZinCream Medinova can also be used as a supportive agent or for follow-up treatment if these skin diseases are made worse by fungal and/or bacterial infections and must be treated primarily with a medicine that is specifically effective against these pathogens. Minor skin damage ZinCream Medinova is used to treat minor skin damage such as open and cracked skin areas, scratches, abrasions and cuts. Wound edges ZinCream Medinova can also be used on the instructions of the doctor to support the treatment of wound edges in open wounds (e.g. leg ulcers or lower leg ulcers and bedsores) in order to prevent the wound from spreading and possible infections. What should be taken into account? Reddened skin and soreness on the bottom of babies in diapers are usually the result of moisture in the diapers and contact with urine and feces. The following measures can support the treatment: Keep the bottom as dry as possible. It can also be beneficial not to put diapers on the child for a few hours a day. Use diapers that allow air to pass through. Rinse cloth diapers very well to remove all detergent residue. Clean the bottom area with lukewarm water. Avoid soap.
