Bepanthen ointment is used to prevent and protect against the occurrence of mild skin irritations and superficial cracks in the skin that may occur due to dry skin. Bepanthen ointment contains dexpanthenol, which is converted to vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) in the skin. Dexpanthenol promotes the building up of the outer skin layer.

Bepanthen SensiCalm is a cortisone-free cream that both relieves itching and stimulates the rebuilding of the skin barrier, which reduces the need to scratch and helps the skin to heal. Bepanthen SensiCalm contains naturally caring lipids, which are reminiscent of the lipid layers in the skin barrier.
