DON’T GET BITTEN – GET AN EFFECTIVE REPELLENT!


The increase in travel to exotic locations coupled with the worldwide threat of insect- borne disease such as Zika Virus underscores the need for effective insect repellents.


In 2002 researchers in the USA concluded that only products containing DEET (diethyl- m-toluamide) offer long lasting protection from insect bites. They further concluded that the use of non-DEET repellents in areas with prevalent mosquito-borne disease would seem to be ill advised and that DEET-based repellents remain the ‘gold standard’ of protection.


DEET has an excellent safety profi le and in the USA eminent bodies now recommend that children over 2 years can use up to 30% DEET products.


The Ben’s® range from Ardern Healthcare includes products up to 95% DEET (Ben’s® 100) as well as an effective non-chemical alternative. For soothing insect bites the After Bite® range includes Classic, Xtra and new Kids formulations.

By changing from branded emollients to the cost effective Zeroderma emollient range, NHS Scotland could save £1 million a year and one Scottish Health Board could save around £200,000 p.a.


The Zeroderma range of eight emollients are similar in formulation to around 50% of currently prescribed emollients and offer cost savings of up to 37%. They are all sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) free and available on prescription.


Many Health Boards and Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) have adopted the Zeroderma range onto their formularies and cost savings are being made without compromising on patient care.


To find out how much your Health Board could save visit our QIPP and Emollients toolkit at www.qipp.trderma.co.uk, developed by Medicines Management teams it contains everything needed to implement product changes at practice level, as well as a guide to the savings your Health Board could make.
