Siopel® Cream
Siopel® Cream is an effective water repellent barrier cream with antiseptic properties, useful whenever the skin needs to be protected from water-soluble irritants. It contains cetrimide, an effective antiseptic used for wound cleansing.
How to Apply Siopel® Cream
Wash and dry the skin. Apply the cream sparingly and massage well into the skin.
Apply three to five times daily for three to four days, then once or twice daily.
Do not use on skin that is acutely inflamed or weeping, or before the skin has been cleansed of contaminating irritants.
Patient Information
Siopel® cream contains Arachis oil (peanut oil) and should not be applied by patients known to be allergic to peanuts. As there is a possible relationship between allergy to peanuts and allergy to soya, patients with soya allergy should also avoid Siopel® cream.
