Key Benefits

  • Instant Skin Irritation Relief: Formulated with a targeted topical analgesic, this lotion quickly blocks pain and itch signals at the skin's surface, providing rapid relief from severe scratching urges.
  • Effective Insect Bite Treatment: Neutralises the intense localised itching and discomfort caused by mosquito, ant, and other minor insect bites, preventing secondary infections from excessive scratching.
  • Soothes Minor Skin Rashes: Acts as an effective Caladryl skin allergy lotion by calming inflammatory responses triggered by environmental allergens, soaps, or synthetic fabrics.
  • Sunburn Soothing and Cooling: The classic calamine base creates a cooling sensation upon application, drawing out heat and providing immense comfort to mild sunburns.
  • Poison Ivy and Oak Relief: Works efficiently to dry out the weeping/oozing associated with contact dermatitis caused by poison ivy, oak, or sumac.
  • Acts as a Mild Astringent: By gently contracting skin tissues, the lotion helps protect minor cuts and scrapes, creating a barrier against environmental pollutants.

FAQs

Caladryl Lotion 60 ml is a topical medication used primarily for skin irritation relief. It effectively treats itching, pain, and discomfort caused by minor skin allergies, insect bites, sunburns, heat rashes, and contact dermatitis (like poison ivy).

Yes, you can use it on your face for minor insect bites or localised allergic reactions. However, apply it carefully using a cotton swab, avoiding the eyes, lips, and nostrils. Do not use it as a daily facial moisturiser.

While the calamine in the lotion acts as a mild astringent that can dry out excessive oil and reduce redness, Caladryl is not formulated or recommended as a primary acne treatment. Consult a dermatologist for targeted acne therapies.

It utilises a dual-action mechanism. The topical antihistamine/analgesic numbs the itch receptors and blocks histamine, while the calamine evaporates to provide a cooling sensation and acts as a barrier to protect the healing skin.

For children under 2 years of age, you should always consult a paediatrician before use. While calamine is generally safe, the active anti-itch ingredients require medical approval for infants.

You can securely buy Caladryl lotion online through the Apollo platform. The Caladryl lotion price is highly affordable and competitive; please check the product listing above for today's exact pricing and ongoing discount offers.

For adults and children over 2 years, it is generally recommended to apply the lotion to the affected area 3 to 4 times daily. If symptoms persist beyond a week, stop use and consult a doctor.

Caladryl leaves a powdery pink residue once dry. While it may transfer slightly to tight fabrics, it is generally easy to wash out of standard clothing with normal laundry detergent. Allow it to dry completely before dressing.

Absolutely. The cooling properties of calamine combined with the mild topical analgesic make it an excellent choice for soothing the stinging and burning sensations associated with mild sunburns.

When used as directed, side effects are very rare. However, some individuals may experience mild burning, redness, or temporary skin dryness at the application site. Discontinue use if you notice severe irritation.
