Doublebase Flare Relief
Doublebase Flare Relief is a unique dual-action emollient with a supplementary anti-inflammatory has been designed to help prevent flare ups and reduce soreness and redness. It’s steroid-free and can be used every day to help manage irritated, sore, dry skin.
Some dry skin conditions, such as eczema, dermatitis and psoriasis, go through periods of extra redness and inflammation – commonly called ‘flares’. These flares result in aggravated, sensitive and sore skin and, in such cases, a plain emollient may not be enough.
This is where Flare Relief from Doublebase can help. By adding an anti-inflammatory ingredient to a highly effective, long-lasting emollient, it delivers additional relief to dry skin and can help prevent flares. It can be used either during the period of flare itself or as an ongoing, highly effective emollient.
It is a highly moisturising and protective treatment for dry skin. Its primary action is as an emollient, to moisturise skin, with an added medicinal substance, nicotinamide, which provides supplementary anti-inflammatory action
It helps in the treatment and routine management of dry and inflamed skin conditions such as mild to moderate dermatitis, various forms of eczema and psoriasis in circumstances where a supplementary anti-inflammatory may be beneficial (e.g. during flare ups).
Doublebase Flare Relief Emollient is for use by adults, the elderly and children from 1 year of age.
Regular use helps to prevent flare ups and reduce soreness and redness
Suitable for dry skin conditions, such as mild to moderate eczema, dermatitis and psoriasis

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 pump pack, turn the top of the pump dispenser in the direction of the open arrow to unlock it. After unlocking for 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 Doublebase Flare Relief Emollient over and around all dry and/or 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 (like stroking a cat or dog). If necessary, allow time for any excess to soak in. Do not rub the skin vigorously.
If you are using other medicines applied to the skin, any instructions supplied with the other product should be followed to allow adequate time for absorption before applying Doublebase Flare Relief Emollient. The time allowed should normally be around 30 minutes for topical corticosteroids that have been prescribed by your doctor and up to 2 hours for certain calcineurin inhibitors that have been prescribed by your doctor. This is to avoid diluting the other product and spreading it to areas that do not need it.
Carry on using Doublebase Flare Relief Emollient 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.
