Coloplast Critic-Aid Clear Moisture Barrier Ointment, 2.5 oz Tube

Coloplast Critic-Aid Clear Moisture Barrier Ointment is a premium skin protectant designed to manage and prevent skin irritation associated with incontinence. This clear, petrolatum-based ointment provides a durable, protective layer that seals out wetness while allowing for easy skin inspection without removing the product. It is an ideal solution for individuals dealing with moisture-associated skin damage (MASD), diaper rash, or Stage 1 pressure ulcers.

Formulated for both comfort and clinical efficacy, Critic-Aid Clear adheres to intact, denuded, and even weeping skin. Unlike thick, opaque pastes, its transparent consistency ensures that caregivers can monitor skin health and healing progress in real-time. The ointment is easy to apply and remove, minimizing friction and trauma to sensitive areas. It is enriched with ingredients that help maintain the skin's natural moisture balance, making it a staple for long-term care, home health, and post-operative recovery.

Whether you are looking for an everyday preventative measure or a targeted treatment for severe skin breakdown, Critic-Aid Clear offers a reliable, sting-free barrier. Its minimal ingredient list reduces the risk of allergic reactions, ensuring it is safe for even the most delicate skin types.


Can Critic-Aid Clear be used on open or broken skin?
Yes, Critic-Aid Clear is specifically formulated to adhere to denuded (broken) and weeping skin, providing a protective barrier that promotes an optimal healing environment.
Does this ointment interfere with the absorbency of incontinence briefs?
Because it is a petrolatum-based ointment, it is recommended to apply a thin layer to avoid "clogging" the top sheet of diapers or briefs, which can impact their ability to wick away moisture.
Is Critic-Aid Clear safe for use on infants?
Yes, Critic-Aid Clear is safe for neonatal and pediatric use, making it an excellent choice for treating severe diaper dermatitis or protecting sensitive baby skin.
How often should I reapply the ointment?
For best results, reapply the ointment after every episode of incontinence or whenever the skin barrier has been compromised to ensure continuous protection.
Is it difficult to remove during routine cleansing?
No, Critic-Aid Clear is designed to be easily removed with standard skin cleansers, reducing the need for harsh scrubbing that could further damage the skin.
