Like you, your skin is resilient. And vulnerable. It’s the way you touch the world—at every stage of life. Our dermatology products support complete skin health, from scalp to sole.
Sensitive from the Start
From birth, we humans are sensitive. Even the toughest among us require a remarkable amount of attention and care as we slowly grow into our environment. And that environment can sometimes be irritating.
Nappy rash is one of the most common skin ailments in infancy. It’s painful and distresses both babies and parents.
Bepanthen™ products are sold for a variety of conditions all over the world. They provide gentle care for the nappy or diaper area in babies, they are used to alleviate dry skin, and some are used to care for minor wounds. In some countries Bepanthen™ products are also available for the management of eczema.
Solutions for Intimate Health and Fungal Conditions
As we go through life, new skin issues can emerge. Fungal problems can set in.
Fifty years ago, Bayer researchers developed clotrimazole, the active ingredient in Canesten®, as a revolutionary treatment for vaginal yeast infections (“thrush”).
Since then, Canesten® has grown to offer treatments for a range of intimate health conditions. And today, knowledge remains at the heart of everything we do, which is why we also educate people about vaginal health issues to dispel the misinformation and stigma that so often come with them.
We also offer products to treat skin and foot fungal conditions like athlete’s foot and jock itch.
At Bayer, we’re focused on bringing science-based solutions to consumers around the world, and throughout all stages of life.
