How Does it Work?
To answer this question, we must ask how calamine lotion, the medical industry's most popular anti-pruritic, reduces itching. Calamine lotion, used since antiquity (Egyptian development), is zinc-based. Centuries ago, natural mineral deposits containing zinc carbonate were used for the zinc source. Today, a variety of zinc salts (zinc acetate, etc.) are used to manufacture calamine lotion. The zinc in calamine lotion offers modest bioavailability. The zinc in Zn7 Derm, complexed with L-lysine and taurine, is not only stabilized at a neutral pH (the zone of intracellular 6.8 – 7.2pH), but is carried across cell membranes at much higher levels to deliver greater anti-pruritic benefits deep within the skin.
Zn7 Derm is applied during:
Dermatology cases where there is a need to reduce steroid and/or antibiotic demand by using a natural anti-pruritic, skin care topical.
Dermatology cases that are slow to respond with hair re-growth.
Post-surgery cases where a topical is beneficial to reduce the surgery site irritation and itch.
Cases to help relieve discomfort from thermal, chemical and radiological burns.
INDICATIONS:
A protective topical to aid in the management of various skin conditions. Zn7 Derm is a natural neutralized zinc topical that provides relief from itching and drying of raw skin conditions. Can be used in conjunction with standard antibiotic or steroid therapy.
DIRECTIONS:
Thoroughly clean and dry affected skin, then spray site. Apply once or twice daily. Affected areas may be bandaged or exposed. Please consult your veterinarian for additional advice or clinical evaluation.
INGREDIENTS:
Deionized Water, Glycerin, Zinc Gluconate, L-lysine, Taurine, Carboxymethylcellulose, Methylparaben, Propylparaben.
