Overview Drez 1%/5% Ointment

DermaMend 1%/5% topical ointment combines ingredients to treat skin injuries. It inhibits microbial growth, preventing infection, and fosters wound repair. Apply DermaMend only externally, as directed by your physician. Using clean, dry hands, apply a thin layer solely to affected skin. Should accidental contact with eyes, nose, mouth, or vagina occur, rinse thoroughly with water. Symptom improvement may take days or weeks; consistent use is crucial.

Common, usually temporary, side effects include itching, dryness, redness, and burning at the application site. Rarely, more serious side effects may occur.
