3M Cavilon Durable Barrier Cream, Fragrance Free, 3.25 oz

3M Cavilon Durable Barrier Cream is a concentrated, therapeutic cream designed to provide long-lasting protection from bodily fluids while deeply moisturizing the skin. Unlike standard barrier ointments that require frequent reapplication and can interfere with adhesive tapes or dressings, Cavilon’s unique, polymer-based formula vanishes into the skin. This creates a breathable, transparent layer that resists washing off, making it an ideal solution for incontinence care and the prevention of Incontinence-Associated Dermatitis (IAD).

What sets this durable barrier cream apart is its "vanishing" quality. It does not clog incontinence briefs or pads, ensuring that moisture is properly wicked away from the skin rather than trapped against it. Because the formula is highly concentrated, a small amount goes a long way, providing an economical and effective shield against moisture, enzymes, and friction. It is fragrance-free, hypoallergenic, and CHG compatible, making it safe for even the most sensitive or compromised skin types.

Whether you are managing chronic skin conditions or looking for a proactive way to maintain skin integrity, 3M Cavilon offers a professional-grade barrier that stays put. It allows for easy monitoring of the skin underneath and won't sting upon application, ensuring comfort for patients and ease of use for caregivers.

How often do I need to reapply Cavilon Durable Barrier Cream?
Because of its durable, polymer-based formula, this cream typically only needs to be applied once every 24 to 48 hours, or after every third or fourth incontinence episode, as it resists washing off.
Will this cream affect the absorbency of adult diapers or pads?
No. Unlike petroleum-based ointments that can "clog" liners, Cavilon is non-greasy and breathable, allowing fluids to pass through to the absorbent material of the brief or pad.
Can I use adhesive tapes or dressings over this cream?
Yes. Once the cream has dried, it does not interfere with the adhesion of medical tapes or dressings, which is a significant advantage over traditional zinc oxide or petrolatum barriers.
Is this product safe for sensitive skin?
Absolutely. This formula is fragrance-free, hypoallergenic, and pH-balanced. It is also CHG compatible, meaning it won't interfere with antiseptic cleansers used in clinical settings.
Does it sting when applied to reddened or irritated skin?
No, the formula is designed to be non-stinging, providing a soothing application even on skin that is already irritated by moisture or friction.
