What is urea?

Urea is naturally present in healthy skin. It is one of three natural moisturising factors in the outer horny layer of our skin. The other two natural moisturising factors are lactic acid and amino acids. There are markedly reduced amounts of urea in dry skin conditions.
Topical preparations of DERMOPATHY LOTION is manufactured as urea, either alone or in combination with other medicines, can be particularly useful in treating scaly and itchy dry skin conditions including:
Atopic dermatitis (eczema)
Psoriasis
Ichthyosis.
Urea is also known as ceramide.
Urea preparations are emollients that are essential in the management of dry skin conditions. Emollients moisturise dry skin by reducing water loss from the epidermis (upper layer of skin) resulting in softer and more supple skin.

The specific actions of the DERMOPATHY LOTION include:

Hydrating effects — The lotion is strongly hygroscopic (water-loving) and draws and retains water within skin cells
Keratolytic effects — urea softens the horny layer so it can be easily released from the surface of the skin
Regenerative skin protection — The lotion has a direct protective effect against drying influences and if used regularly improves the capacity of the epidermal barriers for regeneration
Irritation-soothing effects — The lotion has anti-pruritic activity
Penetration-assisting effects — The lotion can increase the penetration of other substances such as corticosteroids, as it increases skin hydration.
