New Diaper Rash Treatment

New Diaper Rash Treatment

There is a new rx diaper cream on the market for diaper rashes involving yeast infections. It is called Vusion and is avaliable only by prescription. It is not for use in babies under 4 weeks of age and can only be used for a week at a time as its effectiveness will be compromised if used longer. It is NOT a preventative, only a treament. Still practice frequent diaper changes and appropriate peri-care.

If you want more information, google "Vusion"

Hope this information helps someone down the road. I still rely on regular diaper cream or rx nystatin, but I haven't had a bad diaper rash in a very long time. But this may be an even better solution ; )

It is ok, works about as good as anything else.  They prescribed it to my DS several times over the past year and sometimes it worked, sometimes nystatin was better and then from time to time A&D ointment worked just as well, so I guess it just depends on exactly what has caused the rash.  His was usually yeast b/c of antibotics due to ear infections so I don't know.  Anyway, it is expensive so make sure you have insurance :)!

There's a new OTC diaper rash treatment called BabyPaste5.0.  I've had good results with BabyPaste on bad rashes; the product's website is www.babypaste.com.  It doesn't have any of the sensitizers or toxins that I've read are present in other diaper rash treatments.  Hope this helps some more!
