Aveeno Anti-Itch Lotion is meant for external use only and should be applied to the affected area as directed by your doctor or as directed on the label. Do not apply the lotion on severely broken skin areas such as open wounds, deep cuts, or serious burns. If you are self-treating, make sure to follow all the directions on the product package. In case you have any doubts, consult your doctor or pharmacist.
To use Aveeno Anti-Itch Lotion, gently clean and dry the affected area. Prior to application, shake the container well if it is a lotion or foam product. For skin irritation, apply the lotion or foam to the affected area up to 3 to 4 times per day, or as instructed by your doctor. If using the lotion for hemorrhoids or other anal conditions, apply it to the affected area after each bowel movement, or up to 4 to 5 times a day, as instructed by your doctor.
Thoroughly wash your hands after applying the lotion unless the area being treated includes your hands. Do not use this product on large areas of your body or use it more frequently than directed. Also, do not cover the treated area with waterproof bandages or plastic, or apply heat, unless specifically instructed to do so by your doctor. Using Aveeno Anti-Itch Lotion more than directed will not help your condition improve any faster but may increase the risk of side effects.
