Dermol 200 is an antimicrobial shower emollient for direct application onto the skin and is suitable for use as a soap substitute. It contains 5% emollient oils and the well-known and effective antiseptics, benzalkonium chloride and chlorhexidine dihydrochloride, in a non-greasy aqueous system. Its antimicrobial properties assist in overcoming infection, whether from Staphylococcus aureus, the pathogen that often complicates eczema and associated pruritus, or secondary infection caused by scratching. As a non-ionic emollient soap substitute, it also cleanses the skin, helping to remove surface debris without removing the skin’s natural oils
