Optiderm^® lotion
Optiderm is ideal for the daily basic care of dry, itchy skin. The products are free of dyes and fragrances.

Optiderm Lotion is particularly suitable for treating larger, dry, itchy areas of skin and hairy areas of the body such as the legs.

Optiderm Lotion is an oil-in-water formulation with 25% lipid content. The thin lotion is quickly absorbed by the skin.
• Quickly relieves itching¹
• Intensely moisturizes the skin²
• Stabilizes the skin's barrier function³
• Without fragrances and dyes, without cortisone
• Lotion for legs and body

Vicious itching
Dry skin can have many causes and is often accompanied by excruciating itching. This is caused by a lack of skin fats and natural moisturizing factors. The sensitive skin barrier gets out of balance and can no longer perform its protective function.
However, scratching, as the body's natural reflex, only provides temporary relief from the itch and worsens the symptoms. A vicious circle of itching, scratching and inflammation develops.
Special care series such as Optiderm break this vicious circle and offer reliable help. On the one hand, Optiderm quickly combats the tormenting itching and also provides the skin with intensive moisture.

Unique combination of active ingredients
Optiderm is the only drug that contains a combination of the active ingredients urea (urea) and polidocanol. It nourishes the skin and provides intensive moisture.
Urea is one of the best moisturizing factors and supports the skin in its ability to bind water. It is often used as a basic therapy for dry skin. As an endogenous substance, urea is also well tolerated. Especially in people with neurodermatitis, psoriasis or diabetes, the urea content in the skin is significantly reduced. Optiderm can compensate for this deficiency.
Polidocanol has a local (local) anesthetic effect on nerve fibers that cause itching and thus quickly counteracts the tormenting itching.1 The symptoms often disappear completely within a week. The skin barrier stabilizes and can resume its natural protective function.3

Optiderm - the cortisone-free alternative for itching with urea and polidocanol.

Dosage and instructions for use:
Unless otherwise prescribed by a doctor, Optiderm Lotion is applied thinly and evenly to the affected areas of skin twice a day. When using the lotion, ensure that it does not come into contact with the eyes or mucous membranes and do not apply the preparation to acutely inflamed, weeping or infected skin.

The duration of the application depends on the clinical picture and is three weeks on average. If the skin is persistently dry, Optiderm Lotion can be used over a longer period of time.
