Bepanthen Sensicalm is a soothing cream designed torelieve itching and reduce redness associated with skin irritation, whether caused by eczema or allergic reactions. Its gentle texture is ideal for dry skin, including that of babies and young children, which is often sensitive and prone to discomfort.
This cortisone-free medical device meets the needs of the whole family. It can be applied several times a day to relieve tightness, soothe irritated patches, or treat allergic reactions, and is suitable for infants, children, and adults alike. When dry skin contributes to atopic conditions, this cream helps limit flare-ups and provides rapid relief.
Bepanthen Sensicalm provides relief during episodes of atopic eczema, contact eczema, or itching caused by an allergic reaction. It helps the skin regain comfort and balance, even during more severe flare-ups.
Its formula forms a protective film that limits the penetration of irritants. Lamellar lipids strengthen the skin barrier by replenishing missing lipids, which directly helps soothe itching. Dexpanthenol, glycerin, and humectants provide long-lasting hydration, which is essential for restoring supple, soothed, and better-protected skin.

Immunological mechanisms are involved in the onset of psoriasis. A dysregulation of the immune system causes skin cells to produce too rapidly. Stress or a severe psychological shock, as with many diseases, is a major risk factor in the onset of a psoriasis flare-up.

Our Expert Pharmacy Advice
Atopic skin requires the use of cleansing products tailored to the specific needs of this skin type.
Atopic dermatitis manifests as dry skin and red, rough, inflamed patches that itch—a condition known as “pruritus.” These patches appear raised on the skin, ooze, and then form crusts.
- In infants, these patches most often develop on the face (cheeks, chin, forehead), scalp, arms, and legs. The baby tends to rub the patches against sheets or other accessible surfaces to scratch them.
- In childrenover two years of age, these patches mainly affect the elbows, the backs of the knees, the ears, the wrists, the ankles, and the hands.
- In adults, the condition tends to affect the neck, head, shoulders, and chest.
Note that atopic dermatitis occurs in flare-ups. Periods of inflammation with the formation of red patches are followed by periods of remission, without eczema, of varying durations.
Which anti-itch cream should you use to relieve your atopic eczema or your baby’s?
Treating the symptoms of dermatitis helps improve the comfort and quality of life for those affected. For both adults and children, the cream to use depends on the phase:
-
During the inflammatory phase (flare-up): your doctor may prescribe a cortisone-based cream. If the eczema isn’t severe, you can applyBepanthenSensicalm anti-itch cream . This cortisone-free cream repairs the skin barrier and relieves itching. It is an effective alternative to corticosteroids and a useful complement to topical corticosteroid treatments.
-
During periods of remission:when the skin is dry and not red, you can apply an emollient cream such as BepanthenSensiderm Emollient Balm (dermocosmetic).
