Adex Gel Emollient offers an effective and simple approach to the treatment and management of dry skin conditions prone to inflammation, including atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, other forms of eczema, and psoriasis. Its primary emollient action is enhanced with added nicotinamide to provide supplementary anti-inflammatory benefits, helping to reduce redness and irritation while delivering intensive moisturisation in an easily absorbed gel formula. Developed for mild to moderate eczema and psoriasis, it can be used continuously or as needed during flare-ups, is suitable for frequent and regular application, does not contain topical corticosteroids, and can be applied all over the body, including the face, hands, and skin creases.
Active Ingredient
Carbomer, glycerol, isopropyl myristate, liquid paraffin, nicotinamide, phenoxyethanol, sorbitan laurate, trolamine and purified water
How to use
This product is for generalised all-over application to the skin. Apply it three times daily or as often as needed.
Before using the 500 g bottle, turn the top of the pump dispenser anti-clockwise to unlock it. After unlocking the first time, you will need to press down the pump dispenser several times to prime the pump before any product is dispensed.
Gently smooth Adex Gel over and around all dry and inflamed skin areas. For best results, use a few gentle strokes to smooth the gel across the skin in the same direction as hair growth. If necessary, allow time for any excess to soak in. Do not rub the skin vigorously.
If you are using other topically applied products, any instructions supplied with the other product should be followed to allow adequate time for absorption before applying Adex Gel. The time allowed should normally be around 30 minutes for topical corticosteroids and up to 2 hours for certain topical calcineurin inhibitors. This is to avoid diluting the other product and spreading it to areas that do not need it.
Carry on using Adex Gel for as long as necessary – whether that may be only occasionally, e.g. during flares, or continuously if the added anti-inflammatory action is beneficial.
If there is no improvement within 2 to 4 weeks, ask your doctor, nurse or pharmacist for advice.

Washing clothing and bedding may reduce product build-up but not totally remove it.
Storage Information
Keep out of the sight and reach of children.
Do not use the product after the use by date shown on the container and on the unit carton.
The use by date refers to the last day of that month. Once opened, the product can be used until the use by date.
Do not store above 25°C.
Do not freeze the product.
After using the 500 g bottle, it is advisable to turn the top of the pump clockwise to lock it.
In the case of the tube, replace the cap after use.
Occasionally, in the 500 g bottle a small pocket of air may form around the bottom end of the pump’s dip tube, making it harder to pump the gel out. This may be resolved by tapping the base of the bottle firmly on a hard surface two or three times, so the gel can settle at the bottom around the end of the dip tube. The pump should then be pumped slowly.
