COMPLETE EMOLLIENT THERAPY FROM THE ZERODERMA RANGE


How much could you save on emollient prescribing?


The Zeroderma emollient range offers a choice of four creams, one ointment, one gel and two bath additives - providing complete emollient therapy for moisturising, washing and bathing. All Zeroderma products are gentle on the skin and do not contain the harmful irritant sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS).


Zeroderma products are similar in formulation to around 50% of emollients currently prescribed by Health Boards and offer cost savings of up to 37%, with no compromise on patient care. Around 75% of formularies and prescribing guidelines already include at least one Zeroderma product. The Zeroderma emollient range is available on prescription.


A CCG in England who recently started using the Zeroderma range commented:


‘Emollient prescribing has been a useful area to address as part of


QIPP. The focus has been on optimising patient care by offering emollient products that patients are happy to use. Feedback from GPs has been positive and changes have been simple to implement. Patient care has not been compromised and changes to the product prescribed have been acceptable to most patients.’
