AtopiControl Acute Care Cream helps break the vicious circle of itch-inducing flare-ups. It is an excellent way to care for the skin, because it helps reduce the use of hydrocortisone during flare-up periods. A clinical study has proven that the cosmetic effect of the AtopiControl Acute Care Cream formula is comparable to that of 1% hydrocortisone ointment on atopic skin. AtopiControl Acute Care Cream is not a pharmaceutical product and does not replace one. Apply the product to problem areas as often as needed in order to care for, soothe and revive the skin effectively. AtopiControl Acute Care Cream has a distinctive formula: it contains restoring omega-6 fatty acids (evening primrose oil and grape seed oil), soothing Licochalcone A (obtained from liquorice root extract), antibacterial decanediol and cooling menthoxypropanediol. Its tolerability on the atopic skin of adults, children and babies over three months of age has been clinically and dermatologically proven. To reduce the risk of skin irritation and allergy, it contains no cortisone, colourants, fragrances or parabens.
