Sudocrem ( or in Ireland) is an over-the-counter medicated cream aimed primarily at the treatment of irritant diaper dermatitis. It contains a water-repellent base (consisting of oils/waxes); protective and moisturizer agents; antibiotic and antifungal agents; and a weak anesthetic. As well as nappy rash, it can also be used to treat eczema, inverse psoriasis, pressure ulcers, minor burns, surface wounds, sunburn and chilblains. It was manufactured by pharmaceutical company Forest Laboratories Europe until July 2014 when the company was acquired by, and combined with, Actavis plc. On 17 March 2015, Actavis completed the acquisition of Allergan, creating a $23 billion diversified global pharmaceutical company. In 2016 Actavis was acquired by the Israeli pharmaceutical company Teva. In Belgium, the product is sold under the brand "Dermocrem".
