Good old Sudocrem!

I have a toilet-trained 3 year old now so the days of nappy rash are long gone, but I remember those days.... Luckily my baby didn't get nappy rash very often, but when she did I'd slather her bottom in Sudocrem!

It worked like a dream - I never tried using any other nappy rash ointment because Sudocrem worked wonderfully, right from the start.

It really soothes, is easy to apply (I bought a big tub) and works very fast. No matter how red and sore she was, within a couple of hours her skin would go back to normal. It was a huge relief for both of us!!

When our little girl was born almost 12 months ago now, she suffered nappy rash for the first few months and it didn't seem to matter how often we changed her, she got it! :(

We tried so many different creams to try and stop the reddness, and this one by far was a star stand out! It just seemed to work the quickest and was the most gentle on her skin. 

It is quite expensive, but you only need to use a little bit and its well worth it because it actually works fast and helps sooth the area as well. 

We were also recommended by our doctor to mix it with a little Dermeze when applying it and that also seemed to help. :)

Sudocream is a godsend! It clears up nappy rash so fast! My DD had bad nappy rash and each bum change I applied sudocream and a day later the redness had reduced dramatically and her bum didn't look as sore! I wouldn't even bother considering any other creams!

I tried a few other creams and lotions and Sudocrem seemed to be the only one that really worked and quickly. I tried natural plant based creams and pure/natural products with big expectations but they did not give the same results.  Sudocrem is also reasonably priced.

When my DD's is cutting a tooth she always gets nappy rash. I have used 3 different types of nappy rash creams and this one is the most effective. The rash usually clears up within 24hours and it doesnt dry out DD's skin. It is a bit messy to put on however the results make it worth it! Oh and I have found the large tub is lasting a long time making it value for $$.

Most effective for Nappy Rash
BaronessM's comments about Sudocrem
136 out of 248 people found this review helpful

This stuff is great!  It can clear up a mild rash between a single change and the next.  It's a quality cream, very heavy on the zinc component, and is very soothing (my mother tried it on a heat rash, and it not only soothed effectively, it cleared it up in a matter of hours).  It is quite economical, spreads easily on the skin, so not much is needed for good coverage.  It can be a little hard to remove from your hands after application, but nowhere near as hard as oil-based products.  It is also clings a little to cloth nappies, so use a liner if you're a cloth nappy user.

All up, it's a great product that works extremely well.

I wouldn't use any other Nappy Rash cream.  Sudocreme is by far the most effective and it is non-greasy... we have used this for both our children and will be using for our next baby due in a few weeks.

I still use Sudocreme on my 3.5yr old when she has a sore bottom or vagina and it works really well. 

Also great for general rashes, bites, or burns!

We have a small tub of Sudocrem which we use in our baby bag. I find it to be a very nice cream and easy to use.

It does the job well and aids in clearing up nappy rash. I did find it to not really have an effect on heavy nappy rash. However over all its a good product.

I feel if you use it correctly, its good value for money. Go a bit heavy on the cream and it becomes quite pricey.

We used this cream from day dot with my son, its great for soothing a sore bottom and easy to apply. Now he is almost 2 he likes to eat it! Cant imagine its very good for him, nor would it taste very nice. But we have to keep it up on a high shelf so he cant get to it.

Highly reccomed this cream, its a great all rounder.

Fail-proof nappy rash treatment
MissRose1's comments about Sudocrem
143 out of 266 people found this review helpful

Sudocrem really is fail-proof in clearing up nappy rash. At the first site of a red bottom, I apply this and the redness clears up by the next nappy change.

I have been using sudocrem for years for various things... As a nurse, we use this for excoriation in the nursing home I work in. I also use it on my dog's sensitive skin during allergy season and it works a treat!

Highly recommend that everyone has a tub of this in their home.

Found this cream to be good for really really bad nappy rash but it wouldnt get my baby's bum back to normal, it would get the angry out of it and then I would have to switch to something milder.

We have been using Sudocrem since we brought our little girl home from hospital. It absorbs easily, has a pleasant smell and is easy enough to use with every nappy change. As a result, she has never suffered from nappy rash.

She also developed a nasty rash under her chin, which was quite red and sore (I think this was from milk dribbling down). We tried using paw paw ointment on it which didn't work. As soon as we used the Sudocrem it healed in a couple of days.

Our baby is 3 months now and we are still using the same tub of Sudocrem from when we first brought her home from hospital. You don't need to use a lot of it so it lasts ages!

Thoroughly recommend this product!

My son doesn't tend to get a lot of nappy rash but when he does, this product does the trick!

I just changed his nappy like I would normal do and rub so of the Sudocrem on it and it is gone by the next day. Also this product doesn't seem to bother which is a plus so it must not sting when it is put on. 

I would recommend this to everyone!

I absolutely love this stuff! I tried many things for my baby's nappy rash and finally pulled the sudocream out of my bounty bag. Now I use it all the time! I love how thick it is. A little goes a long way in creating a protective layer to ward away any nappy rash. I also use a little bit of it behind his ears as they seem to get red and irritated. I've used it on cuts and grazes on myself also. Magic!

I have recieved a few sample sizes of this cream in bounty bags and have loved it.

It is nice and thick and spreads on well, i find the zinc based creams works really well on healing my DD's nappy rash - when i notice a nappy rash starting i put a layer of this on before bad at night and by night teh redness is gone. 

A little bit goes a long way. I have never had to purchase this as my sample tubs have lasted so long.

I quite like the smell, i think it is pleasant.

I am not sure about the bigger tubs but the sample size tube have a flimsy lid that doesn't stay on.

I would recommend this cream.

Have only used a sample size pot of this, as I carry it in our nappy bag.

The sample pots have hopeless lids that come off, so we have to keep it in a little bag :)

The cream is thinner, so can be difficult to put on if bub's bum isn't 100% dry. It seems to clear up any signs of a rash, though takes longer than other leading products. 

Good to keep in the nappy bag, but I won't be buying a full size tub for home.

I got a sample size tub in my bounty bag, so when my son got his first nappy rash i put the tiniest bit on and the rash was gone by the next nappy change.  Its really effective...you dont have to use much of it at all and the smell wasnt bad either.  This is definitley a product I will continue to use and eventually buy once we go through the free tub we got.

This is the best nappy cream and has replaced all others for us! The tiniest sign of redness is gone by next nappy change when I use this cream! So I use if often, especially at night to provide that extra barrier. 

The tub is great for home use, and the tube you can buy of Sudocrem is easier for changes on the go (less cream on your hands digging it out of the tub while out & about!).

It goes quite a fair way, without having to use excessive amounts. Great stuff.

i used this on my boys rashes and in a couple of days it heald up. the trick is to clean and dry him really well. and then apply the cream. at first i wasnt drying him properly and the cream would just seal in the moisture. now that i dry him properly the cream seals out the moisture, allowing his skin to heal and repair! i would recommend this for other mothers to try as a way to heal/ help body rashes in newborns.

Sudocream is good for mild rashes and clears it up quickly.  I like that it comes in a tube too so is good for the nappy bag.

But when my son gets a bad rash, it's not as effective.

Still a nice cream though, good coverage, nice smell etc.

Our bub had a mild case of nappy rash when she was about a week old while we were using disposible nappies, i tryed another brand of cream that we used for our older daughter with no success. I had a sample pot of sudocream in the nappy bag so gave it a try. By the end of the day the rash was almost gone!

Great nappy rash cream, would reccoment it!

DummyMummy's comments about Sudocrem

I have found sudocrem to be very useful, except i've never used it for nappy rash as my bub hasn't really had this.

I find zinc to be a great healer. During winter my baby was getting little rashes behind his knees for example. Probably due to him not being dry enough after a bath before I put his clothes on to keep him warm. A little bit of sudocrem would clear this up in no time.

I received many nappy rash creams when bub was born but this seemed to work the best. Plus you only need to use small amounts. I am still using the trial pack  from the bounty bag - is tiny, tiny.

This is a fabulous product which clears up nappy rash in a couple of nappy changes, and works well as a barrier cream too.

Also good for those little red patches in skin folds (inside of elbows, back of knees etc) and only any dry skin patches, eczema. I use it on my nappy hands, scratches and scrapes etc. Any skin problem really.

Shop around. Coles sell 125g for under $10 but Chemist Warehouse sell 250g for $14 (Aug 09). Tried the amcal own-brand version but it didn't work.

Samples are freely avaiable in bounty bags and probably by contacting the company. The little sample pots are great for storing in the nappy bag too!

We hadn't used any creams or lotions until bub was about 3 months old, when he started to blister and bleed no matter how gently we wiped. Sudocrem soothed the blisters and they were gone in 3 days. We swear by it, whenever bub is looking a bit red we pop some Sudocrem on him and he's fine. Highly recommend it, as its great value for money.

I used this at almost every nappy change on DD from birth to about 18months. The only nappy rash she got was when I was in too much of a hurry to put it on and she stayed in a wet nappy for a tad too long. The idea is to use it as a barrier cream as well as a treatment product.
