How Does It Work?

Lansinoh works by the process of moist wound healing. Studies reveal moist wound healing offers a soothing environment for sore nipples and as no scab is formed healing is accelerated.

An important additional benefit of moist wound healing is that it offers immediate pain relief, an urgent need for any mother with sore nipples.

  Directions For Use  
     
  With clean hands soften a small amount of Lansinoh between fingers and apply to entire nipple area after each feeding or as needed. Lansinoh lanolin does not have to be removed prior to breastfeeding.

 
  For your comfort and to help protect sensitive nipples you may also apply Lansinoh before showering.

 
  Lansinoh should be used in conjunction with addressing the cause of the soreness. See additional reference material on causes of sore nipples.

 
  If soreness does not start to ease within 24 hours of commencing use of Lansinoh, or if the problem persists, the user should contact a Lactation Consultant, Breastfeeding Counsellor or their Health Care Professional.

 
  Lansinoh lanolin used by itself is not a treatment for sore nipples caused by thrush (Candida albicans) or a bacterial infection.

 
  Lansinoh 100% pure lanolin can be used in conjunction with treatment for skin conditions. Unbroken skin is the best barrier to infection, however Lansinoh nipple cream relieves dryness that can result in cracking and promotes healthy skin. It may also prevent some secondary infections.

Other Uses

By providing a partially occlusive moisture barrier, Lansinoh lanolin slows down the body's natural evaporation process. This allows the skin to restore its own natural moisture from the inside out.

Lansinoh lanolin can be used also to soothe: chapped lips, nappy rash, dry skin on elbows, heels and knees, itchy stretch marks, minor cuts, burns and skin abrasions. Useful for all the family!
