Chamosyn Skin Protectant Ointment

For anyone managing incontinence-associated dermatitis, pressure-prone skin, or the redness that comes with prolonged moisture exposure, Chamosyn works by putting a barrier between fragile skin and the irritants that break it down. It's a zinc oxide ointment built for caregivers and clinicians who need protection that stays put through repositioning, changes, and cleansing.

What sets this formula apart is the combination behind the zinc oxide: menthol for a cooling sensation on inflamed skin, aloe to soothe, and Manuka honey, long valued for its skin-conditioning properties. The scented ointment applies smoothly and forms a protective layer that shields against wetness and chafing while the skin underneath is given a chance to recover.

We carry Chamosyn in two practical formats. The 4 oz. jar (SC0125W) is the workhorse for home care and ongoing daily use, where you're applying to the same areas repeatedly and want a supply that lasts. The 5 gram individual packets (SC0003W) suit facilities, travel bags, and single-use protocols where hygiene and portion control matter — no cross-contamination, no guessing at how much is left.

Apply a thin layer to clean, dry skin after each cleansing, paying attention to the perineal area, buttocks, and any skin folds where moisture collects. Because zinc oxide is protective rather than absorbed, reapply as needed after washing. It's suitable for use around adult incontinence care as well as general chafing and minor skin irritation.

Chamosyn pairs naturally with the rest of a skin-integrity routine. Explore our full range of skin care products, or stock the supporting items you'll reach for alongside it in incontinence care.
