A Thick, Long-Lasting Barrier for Prolonged Moisture Exposure
Medline Remedy Protectant Zinc Paste is built for situations where skin faces extended exposure to moisture — think incontinence care, diapering, or any setting where a thin lotion just won't hold up. Combining 75% petrolatum with 20% zinc oxide, this thick paste forms a durable barrier that seals out wetness and helps protect intact and irritated skin from the effects of urine and fecal matter.
The unscented, paraben-free formula is gentle enough for sensitive skin of all ages, and it's CHG compatible, making it a practical choice for both home caregivers and healthcare settings. Whether you're managing everyday incontinence care or protecting skin during a longer stretch between changes, this paste is formulated to stay put and keep working.

Equipment Specialist Insight: A thick zinc paste like this one is generally the stronger choice over a thinner zinc cream when moisture exposure is heavy or prolonged — the higher petrolatum content creates a more durable, water-resistant layer that holds up better between changes. For lighter, everyday diaper rash prevention, a thinner cream can be easier to apply and remove; for extended incontinence care or skin that's already showing irritation, the extra staying power of a paste formula is usually worth the trade-off in ease of application.
