Calamine Lotion (คารามาย) Anti-Itch 60 ml

Calamine Lotion is a dual-ingredient topical lotion combining Calamine and Zinc Oxide. It acts directly on the skin surface without systemic absorption, making it highly safe and steroid-free.

• Calamine — a mixture of Zinc Carbonate and Iron Oxide that produces a cooling sensation on contact, reducing nerve signals that trigger itching for fast itch relief
• Zinc Oxide — protects the skin barrier from irritants, provides mild anti-inflammatory action, and supports recovery of irritated skin

Calamine Lotion is a light-pink suspension — always shake well before use to distribute the active ingredients evenly. After application it dries quickly, leaving a soft pinkish-white powder on the skin.

Calamine Lotion relieves itching and rashes from various causes:

• Contact Dermatitis — itchy rashes from allergens such as detergents, metals, or plants
• Insect Bites — reduces swelling and itching from mosquito, ant, bee, or other insect bites
• Urticaria (Hives) — soothes itching and burning sensation from hives
• Chickenpox (Varicella) — reduces chickenpox blister itching, prevents scratching, reduces secondary infection risk
• Sunburn & Skin Irritation — calms redness and burning after sun exposure or heat contact
• Diaper Rash — Zinc Oxide forms a protective barrier on baby's skin; safe from birth

Calamine Lotion is suitable for mild to moderate itching. For severe or spreading rashes, consult a doctor for further treatment.

How to apply Calamine Lotion correctly for best results:

• Shake the bottle well before each use — Calamine Lotion is a suspension; without shaking, the active ingredients may not distribute evenly
• Clean the affected area and pat dry before applying
• Using a clean cotton pad or finger, apply a thin layer over the affected area
• Apply 2-3 times daily or whenever itching occurs
• Allow to dry before dressing to avoid staining clothing
• Wash hands after each application (unless treating the hands)

For children: Safe from infancy — use smaller amounts appropriate to the affected area; prevent children from licking the application site.

⚠️ Avoid contact with eyes, nose, mouth, mucous membranes, or open wounds.

Calamine Lotion has very few side effects because it does not absorb into the body. Possible effects include:

• Dry skin or flaking — may occur with very frequent application; reduce frequency or follow with a moisturizer
• Allergic reaction — rare; possible increased redness, itching, or swelling; discontinue immediately if this occurs
• Clothing staining — the pink suspension may stain; allow to dry fully before dressing

Calamine Lotion contains no steroids and has no immunosuppressive effects, making it safe for long-term use and for children without steroid-associated side effect risks.

• Avoid eyes, nose, and mouth — do not apply to any mucous membranes
• Do not apply to open wounds or broken skin
• Known hypersensitivity to Calamine or Zinc Oxide — discontinue immediately if allergy occurs
• Pregnancy and breastfeeding — generally considered safe as topical application with negligible systemic absorption; consult a doctor if in doubt
• Infants and young children — safe to use but keep away from the child's mouth and hands to prevent ingestion
• If symptoms do not improve within 7 days or worsen, consult a doctor

Several topical anti-itch options are available, each working differently:

• Calamine Lotion (Calamine + Zinc Oxide) — steroid-free, drug-free; soothes itch through cooling and skin protection. Best for rashes, insect bites, chickenpox, and hives. Safe for daily use, children, and pregnant women.
• Fenistil Gel (Dimetindene Maleate 0.1%) — topical antihistamine that directly blocks histamine receptors. Works faster for allergy-driven itch. May cause irritation on large areas. Suitable from age 2.
• Dermovate Cream (Clobetasol Propionate 0.05%) — high-potency topical steroid for chronic, treatment-resistant inflammatory conditions. Not suitable for general itching or children.

In short: Choose Calamine Lotion for gentle, everyday itch relief safe for all ages including children and pregnant women. Choose Fenistil Gel for faster relief of allergy-driven itch. Choose Dermovate only for chronic inflammatory skin conditions under medical guidance.

Calamine Lotion acts relatively quickly after application:

• Cooling sensation and itch relief — felt within 5-15 minutes as Calamine evaporates, creating a cooling effect on the skin
• Itch relief duration — lasts approximately 1-3 hours; reapplication may be needed
• Rash and redness — noticeable improvement after consistent use over 2-3 days

Calamine Lotion does not cure the underlying cause of itching, but it relieves discomfort while the body heals naturally or while awaiting other treatment such as oral antihistamines if needed.
