What is unguentine?

Unguentine is a topical medication commonly used for treating minor burns, cuts, scrapes, and other skin irritations. It is available in the form of a cream or ointment and contains ingredients such as petrolatum, mineral oil, and lidocaine.

Unguentine works by providing a protective barrier over the affected area to help prevent infection and promote healing. The lidocaine component also helps to provide temporary relief from pain and discomfort.

It is important to clean the affected area before applying Unguentine and to wash your hands thoroughly after application. If the irritation persists or worsens, it is recommended to seek medical advice.

Unguentine is generally safe for use on most skin types, but it is always best to consult with a doctor or pharmacist before using it, especially if you have any allergies or medical conditions.
