Product Description
iLEX® Skin Protectant Paste is a viscous petrolatum-based product formulated to seal out wetness. iLEX protects chafed skin due to diaper rash and irritated peristomal skin. Unlike zinc-oxide based products, iLEX becomes translucent when applied, allowing you to monitor the rapid progress that treatment with iLEX will achieve.
iLEX is formulated with Gantrez®, a patented polymer with a distinct ability to adhere to wet/moist areas. As an effective barrier to the irritants of urinary and fecal incontinence, iLEX is superior.
An outer coating of petrolatum jelly or A & D Ointment is recommended when using iLEX, so that incontinence clean up leaves the iLEX application intact. Gentle removal of iLEX is easy with a gauze wipe soaked in mineral oil, which lessens the risk of damage to healing skin.
