Sudocrem® has been soothing skin since 1931

Our story began in 1931 when Pharmacist Professor Thomas Smith blended together a unique formula of active ingredients that brought together the best of nature and science to effectively soothe and help to heal baby’s nappy rash as well as other skin conditions.
Use only as directed. If symptoms persist or if there are side effects please consult your healthcare professional.
