lubriderm reaction

[lobsterhands]

What does the lotion "Lubriderm" contain that would cause an allergic reaction- redness swelling of hands & face- even palms?  I am confident that this was from the Lubriderm as I wiped off an excess of the lotion on the side of my cheek and my cheek was red and swelling.  My hands were worse as I had applied double the lotion when I started to itch -I thought it dryness due to the cold.

I have taken benadryl, the swellingof my face has ceased but my hands are red and blown up like a baloon and terribly itchy.

have you heard of this before with Lubriderm?

Hi,
I'm looking for answers to the Lubriderm lesions... and how to have skin that I don't want to scratch off...

Have you found any remedies?
Specifically, for itchy skin?

A lawsuit? Really? I am allergic to peanuts and would never sue peanut farmers I just stay away from them. How about finding out which ingredient you may be allergic to and then avoid it? Or, just threaten to sue every company that uses that ingredient in thier lotion. Come to think of it, I should sue Jif and Skippy and all of the bakeries that use peanuts and of course Reese's....get the point? It's a medical condition you can take care of all by yourself.

Another Lubriderm victim here, so glad I found this thread! Used the Lubriderm Soothing Relief 2 nights ago and woke up the next day with small red bumps all over my arms, stomach, chest and especially my back! Cannot stop itching. Took an oatmeal bath and some Benadryl last night with no relief. Guess I will be going to buy a cortisone or Benadryl cream and hoping that it starts clearing up!

I had a severe allergic reaction to Lubriderm Advanced Therapy. So severe I almost went to the ER. Benadryl started working almost immediately and a prolonged cold shower with Aveeno soap also seemed to help. It was three days ago and I still have a rash in some places. I've never seen my palms get so hot and red before. Everyone needs to complain to Johnson & Johnson. I have & threatened a class action suit for endangering lives!

I am currently dealing with a similar reaction to lubriderm. I usually apply lubriderm to most of my legs and arms daily ,but recently some spread to the inside of my thighs and the surrounding area when I tried applying some there. The area is bright red ,swollen and incredibly itchy. I found running the area under cold water stops the itchiness for a few minutes but is mainly useless. I had a very similar incident a week ago and it went away after 3 days. Since this has happened I am throwing away the Lubriderm and switching to a different brand of lotion. It is incredibly uncomfortable because this is an area of high levels of motion.

Add one more to the list of Lubriderm victims.  I used my wife's Lubriderm Advanced Therapy lotion on my arms due to some dryness from the cold winter weather.  The next morning I woke up with red bumps all over my arms where I had put the lotion.  Like others described, widespread red bumps that are itchy and full of heat.  

I've been using benadryl cream for a few days now and it's slowly subsiding.
