Crystacide 1% Cream 25g

Effective Antiseptic Action for Skin Health

Crystacide 1% Cream 25g harnesses the power of Hydrogen Peroxide 1% w/w, a well-recognised antiseptic agent. This active ingredient works as an oxidising agent, targeting and helping to eliminate a broad spectrum of micro-organisms, including those that do not require oxygen to survive (anaerobes). This makes it particularly useful for keeping minor skin breaks and affected areas clean and hygienic.

How Crystacide 1% Cream Can Help You

This pharmacy-supplied cream is commonly used to disinfect and cleanse the skin, providing professional-grade care especially for:

• Leg ulcers, helping to maintain a clean environment for healing.
• Sores caused by prolonged pressure (known as pressure sores), aiding in their cleansing.
• Superficial skin infections, providing an effective antiseptic barrier.

By delivering controlled release of oxygen, Hydrogen Peroxide helps to physically lift away debris and micro-organisms from the affected area, promoting a healthier skin surface. Always read the label and patient information leaflet for complete usage instructions and important safety information. If symptoms persist or worsen, speak to our pharmacy team for professional advice.

For external use only. 

Apply sparingly to the affected area 2-3 times daily or as required.  If a waterproof plaster is used, one application a day may be sufficient. A dry film may appear on the skin after application; this can easily be washed off with water.

Do not use continuously for more than 3 weeks.

Do not use on large or deep wounds or on healthy skin.

Hydrogen peroxide can bleach fabrics.

Keep out of the sight and reach of children.

Do not use Crystacide Cream 1% if you know you are sensitive or allergic to any of the ingredients. Make sure your doctor or pharmacist knows if this affects you.

Crystacide should not be used on large or deep wounds and should not be applied to healthy skin. Take care to avoid contact with the eyes. If Crystacide should accidentally get into your eyes, wash it out immediately with plenty of cold water.
