How to take it

Apply to clean skin as frequently as required, smoothing gently into affected areas in the direction of hair growth. Isomol Gel can also be used as a soap substitute - massage a small amount onto wet skin in the bath or shower instead of soap or shower gel, then rinse off. For ongoing dry skin conditions, regular daily use (rather than only when skin feels particularly dry) tends to give the best results. Always wash your hands after application unless your hands are the area being treated.

Warnings

Contains liquid paraffin (15% w/w) - fabric such as clothing, bedding or dressings that has dried residue on it can catch fire more easily; keep away from naked flames and cigarettes, and wash contaminated fabric regularly. Avoid contact with the eyes; if the gel gets in your eyes, rinse well with water and seek medical advice if irritation continues. May make bath and shower surfaces slippery - take care when bathing or showering. If you have broken, infected or actively weeping skin, ask a pharmacist or doctor before use. Do a small patch test first if you have known allergies or very reactive skin. For external use only. Always read the label and product information before use. If symptoms persist or worsen, speak to your pharmacist or doctor.

Side effects

Occasional mild skin irritation or sensitivity to an excipient (e.g. phenoxyethanol). Fire hazard: contains liquid paraffin - clothing, dressings and bedding with dried residue can be more easily ignited by a naked flame.

Age restrictions

No formal age restriction - suitable for adults, children and the elderly, in line with other Epimax/Isomol emollients.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

No special precautions stated by the manufacturer for topical use in pregnancy or breastfeeding; check with a pharmacist if unsure.

Alcohol

No interaction with alcohol consumption - a topical, non-systemically-absorbed emollient.

Driving and machinery

No known effect on the ability to drive or operate machinery.

Storage

Store below 25C; do not freeze. Keep out of the sight and reach of children. Do not use after the expiry date.

What is Isomol Moisturising Gel used for?

Isomol is an emollient gel formulated for the daily management of eczema, psoriasis and other dry, itchy or flaky skin conditions. It helps to rehydrate the skin and support its natural barrier, easing dryness and discomfort.

Does Isomol Gel feel greasy like an ointment?

No - that's the main appeal of a gel-based emollient. Isomol absorbs more quickly than a traditional ointment and leaves a lighter finish, while still providing the intensive hydration many dry skin conditions need.

Can Isomol Gel be used on the face?

Yes, Isomol is suitable for use on the face and body. As with any emollient, avoid direct contact with the eyes, and rinse well with water if any gel gets into the eyes.

Is Isomol Gel suitable for sensitive or allergy-prone skin?

Isomol is formulated without SLS, lanolin, parabens or added fragrance, which can make it more comfortable for sensitive or reactive skin. However, everyone's skin is different, so it's sensible to patch test a small area first if you have known sensitivities.

Is Isomol Gel a fire risk even though it's SLS-free?

Yes. Being free from SLS, lanolin and fragrance doesn't remove the fire risk - Isomol Gel still contains liquid paraffin (15% w/w), so dried residue on clothing or bedding can catch fire more easily. Keep away from naked flames and cigarettes as you would with any paraffin-based emollient.
