Can Cutiform Be Used Daily For Skin Allergy In Children?

default
Posted on Fri, 9 May 2014
Question: my 2.3 year old daughter had skin allergy soon after she was born. doc asked us to change from Johnsons to cutiform. once we moved out of state , she hasn't had any skin allergies other than that she had pimples on her face once. during that time I used sebamed cream for her. recently (3-4) months back I have started Himalaya baby cream. but it doesn't seem as effective as sebamed/ cutiform. her grand father has asthma and I do have allergy to fog. can cutiform be used daily? is there any other cream other than sebamed that is effective? is libero good? I haven't used it. initially doc prescribed tedibar soap. now I use dove soap for her. I hope its OK.

Brief Answer: Use mild soaps. Detailed Answer: greetings. it is always better to use mild soaps on children skin. dove is basically a larger proportion of moisturiser and if you are not experiencing any problem with that then it's okay. as far as ointments are concerned the one which you are using are okay. and since they are medicated. it's better to use them as and when needed.hope this helped you. regards.
