What is Eurax Cream?
Eurax Cream is a medicine that helps stop itching fast. Through the active ingredient crotamiton, Eurax Cream can relieve the itching and skin irritation brought on by skin conditions, hives, chickenpox, heat rash, nettle rashes, insect bites, allergies, stings and personal itching.
The formulation is specially made to not cause stains and to be non-greasy, improving comfort.
Alternatives
There are a number of alternative creams and treatments available for those who do not tolerate Eurax cream. Anthisan Cream or HC45 cream can be used for itching, stings and insect bites. Eurax is available in combination with a steroid cream as Eurax HC Cream. Eurax HC Cream can help to reduce inflammation, with its extra component of hydrocortisone (0.25%).
If you predominantly suffer from eczema or dermatitis, you may want to consider using a prescription treatment to control flares. More information and available treatments can be found at our online Eczema clinic.

FAQ
How does Eurax cream work?
Eurax Cream uses the active ingredient Crotamiton. This compound evaporates on the skin, creating a cooling effect. This treatment can bring long-lasting relief from itching caused by itchy skin conditions such as dermatitis, allergic reactions and sunburns.
How do I use Eurax Cream?
Gently massage the cream into the affected area of skin until it is thin enough to evaporate. Once it is applied, it will begin to evaporate off, creating a cooling sensation that should last for the next few hours.
Is Eurax suitable for children?
This product is suitable for children above 3 years of age. It can be used for children under 3, but the advice is to consult your doctor before use and only use it once per day.
Is Eurax a steroid cream?
No; however, Eurax HC Cream combines Eurax with a steroid component. This allows Eurax HC Cream to not only reduce itching, but also reduce swelling and irritation in other conditions.
Where can I buy Eurax cream?
Eurax cream is available from Simple Online Pharmacy in 30g and 100g packs.
