How Sufrate Cream works

Sufrate Cream is a combination of five medicines: Sucralfate, Dimethicone, Zinc Oxide, Calamine and Cetrimide. Sucralfate is an anti-ulcerant which forms a coating over the affected skin surface, protects it from further injury and allows it to heal. Dimethicone softens and moisturizes the skin and decreases itching and flaking. Zinc Oxide, Calamine and Cetrimide have astringent and antiseptic action.
