Product information "Ichtholan® 20 % ointment"

View package leaflet

Ichtholan® 20 % ointment is an over-the-counter medicine and has an anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and circulation-enhancing effect and is used for the maturation of boils and for superficial inflammatory skin diseases.

Abscess - an inflammatory accumulation of pus under the surface of the skin

Bacteria use small injuries to the skin as a "portal of entry" and lead to an inflammatory reaction in the deeper tissue. This can lead to severe pain and an unpleasant feeling of pressure.

ICHTHOLAN® 20% ointment (contains ammonium bituminosulphonate, an active ingredient of natural origin):

  • Has an antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effect
  • Supports abscess maturation so that the pus can drain faster and the feeling of pressure subsides
  • Experience from decades of use

How to use

  • Apply ICHTHOLAN 20% ointment to the area of skin to be treated as thick as the back of a knife and cover with a bandage. The dressing should be changed daily. Each time the dressing is changed, the ointment residue remaining on the skin must first be washed off before a new dressing is applied.
  • Method of application: Unless otherwise prescribed, ICHTHOLAN® 20% Ointment should be applied thickly to the areas of skin to be treated and covered extensively with a bandage. The dressing should be changed daily and the ointment residues should be washed off each time the dressing is changed before ICHTHOLAN® 20% Ointment is applied again.
  • Duration of application: The application of ICHTHOLAN® 20% Ointment as a permanent dressing should not exceed a maximum duration of 3 days. Otherwise, the duration of application depends on the success of the treatment. The frequency of application of ICHTHOLAN® 20% Ointment depends on the type and severity of the clinical picture and the skin reaction.
