Buy Balneum Plus Cream

You can safely buy Balneum Plus Cream online at UK Meds, without the need for a prescription or consultation with a medical professional, however, you should adhere to the advice given in the patient leaflet enclosed.

Balneum Plus Cream is an easily absorbed cream for the treatment of itching and dry skin with eczema, scaling conditions, and dermatitis. It has a soothing and softening effect on the skin. It helps prevent the loss of moisture. The cream contains lauromacrogols, which is effective in relieving itching. It also contains urea to help the skin retain water. Balneum Plus Cream is known to increase skin moisture for up to 24 hours.

People with eczema and psoriasis who have reduced amounts of urea in their skin use Balneum Plus Cream. Balneum Plus Cream helps replace the lost urea in the skin.  

Dry skin results from lack of water in the stratum corneum, the outer layer of the skin cells. The dehydration of this layer results in the loss of flexibility, leading to the cracking of the skin, formation of scales, and itchiness.

The stratum corneum has natural substances that hold water, including urea, which prevents water from seeping up from the deep layers of the skin. Water is typically retained in the stratum corneum with the help of the sebum, a surface film of natural oil and skin cells that slow down the evaporation of water from the skin surface. Dry skin gets worse by washing with hot water and soap, which remove the natural oil from the skin surface.

Balneum Plus Cream contains urea that penetrates the stratum corneum to help absorb and retain water. This allows the skin to hold moisture and to rehydrate the skin. The cream has a moisturizing base that provides layers of oil on the skin surface, preventing the water from evaporating from the skin surface. Balneum Plus Cream soothes and softens the skin, reduce scaling and itching of the dry skin conditions such as ichthyosis and eczema. The lauromacrogols in the cream have anaesthetic properties that help in relieving itchy skin.

Balneum Plus Cream is effective in moisturizing and rehydrating dry skin. It is effective in providing layers of oil on the skin surface to prevent the evaporation of water from the skin surface. It is also effective in relieving itchy skin because of the anaesthetic properties of the lauromacrogols that the cream contains.

Balneum Plus Cream is for external use by adults, children, and the elderly.

Wash and dry your hands thoroughly before you start applying the cream to the affected skin.

Exercise care in applying the cream. Do not apply the cream to oozing, weeping, or broken skin, as it could result in irritation. Do not allow the cream to get into your eyes, or inside the nose and mouth. If accidentally applied to those areas, rinse with plenty of water.

If the symptoms persist or get worse despite the treatment, consult with your doctor.

Balneum Plus Cream is safe for use by pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers. However, breastfeeding mothers are advised to not apply the cream to the breast immediately before giving a feed.

The use of moisturizers can soften and smoothen the skin, making the absorption of other medicines that are applied to the skin. This is useful for the treatment of eczema and other skin conditions because it allows the skin to have an improved ability to absorb the medicine and reduce the inflammation.

However, when applied to the skin at the same time as other medicines, moisturizers such as Balneum Plus Cream can dilute the ingredients of the other medicines. Do not apply Balneum Plus Cream within half an hour of applying medicated creams, ointments, and lotions.

Tell your doctor about all the medications you are taking before you start using Balneum Plus Cream in order to avoid any drug interactions.
