A313 Vitamin A Ointment, available in a 50-gram tubefrom our online pharmacy,is a vitamin A-based medication indicated for the adjunctive treatment of irritant dermatitis.
This over-the-counter A 313 medication is available for purchase only to residents of France.
The skin, which is on the front lines against external aggressors, sometimes needs a little help to regenerate. That’s where A 313 Vitamin A Ointment 50G comes in—a dermocosmetic treatment known forrelieving skin irritation. Thanks to its formula concentrated in vitamin A (200,000 IU per 100 g), this ointment acts as a true healing balm for fragile, damaged, or sensitized skin, just as Avibon ointment—which is no longer available—used to do. A313 ointment is indeed an excellent replacement!
Vitamin A plays an essential role in the cell renewal process. It stimulates skin tissue regeneration, promotes better skin elasticity, and helps restore the skin barrier. It is an indispensable ally for accelerating healing while reducing redness and discomfort. As a fat-soluble vitamin, vitamin A exists in the human body in the form of retinol, retinal (in the retina),retinoic acid (in bones and mucous membranes), or retinyl palmitate (stored in the liver). Vitamin A was first isolated from the retina, hence the name “retinol.” The body obtains vitamin A directly from animal-based foods, where it is present in the form of retinol.
Its rich, enveloping texture forms a protective film on the skin, thereby limiting dehydration while providing intense hydration. When used regularly, A313 cream helpsstrengthen the skin’s natural resilience, particularly during cold weather or afterskin stressors such as dermatological treatments, prolonged sun exposure, or repeated friction.
Unlike traditional moisturizers, this A 131 ointment offers a more targeted, concentrated action. It is ideal for treating very dry areas, rough elbows, cracked heels, or localized patches of irritation. It can be incorporated into a broader skincare routine, complementing other nourishing products.
Furthermore, its fragrance-free formula—free of harsh preservatives—makes it well-tolerated, even by sensitive skin. It is often highly recommended as part of natural anti-aging routines for its smoothing and regenerating effects on fine lines and the first signs of aging.
A313 Vitamin A Ointment is a must-have in any medicine cabinet for deeply repairing, soothing, and regenerating the skin. It can also be used as a preventive treatment to boost skin vitality and maintain the balance of the skin’s microbiome.
We also offer Cicaderma Boiron Homeopathic Repair Ointment, particularly for superficial lesions or fragile skin, at the best price in our online pharmacy.

How is irritant dermatitis defined?
The definition is relatively simple because it:
As a pharmacy specializing in natural remedies, we recommend the use of topical vitamin A as part of a holistic approach to skin health. This type of treatment can be used in conjunction with plant-based oils rich in omega-3 (such as rosehip oil or argan oil) to deeply nourish the skin and prevent dehydration.
In naturopathy, we also encourage supporting the skin “from the inside,” particularly through diet: prioritize foods rich in beta-carotene (carrots, sweet potatoes, dried apricots) to enhance the effects of vitamin A. A good balance between external skincare and nutritional intake contributes to healthy, supple, and radiant skin.
Finally, consider alternating the application of A313 with soothing treatments containing calendula or aloe vera to calm redness and improve skin tolerance, especially if you’re using the ointment on sensitive skin or after exfoliating treatments.
Why use a medication in ointment form rather than cream?
