ICHTHOLAN 20 %

The black drawing ointment ICHTHOLAN^® 20% contains the active ingredient ammonium bituminosulfonate (ICHTHYOL^®). Studies and research prove:

The active ingredient fights bacteria. Inflammation is inhibited, and painful symptoms are reduced. The black drawing ointment loosens the skin barrier and "draws" pus to the skin's surface so that it can drain more easily.

The black drawing ointment ICHTHOLAN^® 20% penetrates deep into the skin and quickly "draws" inflammation and pus out of the skin.

ICHTHOLAN^® 20% is used for
• Nail bed inflammation
• Razor bumps
• Inflammation caused by splinters and thorns
• Sweat gland inflammation

ICHTHOLAN^® 20% is applied thickly to the affected area and covered with a plaster or bandage that fits tightly around the area.

Important for purulent skin inflammation: Above all, act immediately to prevent the infection from spreading and, if possible, avoid a visit to the doctor! Take precautions by keeping ICHTHOLAN^® in your medicine cabinet.
Good to know: ICHTHOLAN^® is available in three strengths: 10%, 20%, and 50%. The gentle ICHTHOLAN 10% ointment was developed specifically for the treatment of sensitive skin areas, such as the intimate area or face. The highly concentrated black drawing ointment ICHTHOLAN^® 50% is used when pus has accumulated deep in the skin, as in boils and abscesses. The general rule is: don't use a sledgehammer to crack a nut! As with any medication, use as much active ingredient as necessary, but as little as possible.
