CalaSoothe Skin Protectant Cream

Dynarex CalaSoothe skin protectant cream combines zinc oxide and menthol in a scented formula built for the everyday realities of incontinence care and moisture-associated skin damage. If you're managing a loved one prone to diaper rash, or stocking a facility cart against the constant threat of perineal breakdown, this is the barrier cream that does two jobs at once: it shields skin from wetness and calms the itch and irritation that comes with it.

The zinc oxide creates a protective layer that keeps urine, stool, and perspiration off compromised skin — the root cause of most incontinence-associated dermatitis. The menthol delivers a cooling sensation that soothes redness and discomfort, which is why caregivers reach for it not only for the diaper area but for chafing, minor skin irritation, and general dryness. It's a skin protectant, so its role is prevention and comfort rather than treating an active infection or open wound; for broken or weeping skin, check with a clinician first.

Choosing between formats comes down to how you'll use it. The 3.5-gram individual packets (1271) are ideal for travel bags, bedside kits, and facility use where single-use portions cut cross-contamination and control cost per application. The 4-ounce tube (1275) is the practical choice for daily home care, where a family goes through cream steadily and wants it on hand. Application is simple — clean and gently dry the skin, then apply a thin, even layer at each change or as needed.

CalaSoothe fits naturally alongside other supplies in a complete incontinence and skin-care routine, from cleansers and wipes to briefs and underpads. Keep it stocked where changes happen, and you protect skin before problems start.
