About US
Over 30 years ago as newly licensed pharmacists in Charleston, S.C., my partner and I compounded a diaper rash ointment to remedy diaper rash for our customers which we called Buttocks Ointment. Over the next few years as we revised and refined the formula, we developed quite a following with our patients and local doctors and nurses. The demand for our product continued to grow as our patients recommended the product to their friends, so we decided to make the product available in the marketplace to other pharmacies. Twenty six years ago, we incorporated as Flanders, Inc. and contracted with a manufacturer to supply the product to us meeting our specifications, naming the product Flanders Buttocks Ointment. Since our inception, we have relied on the effectiveness of the product to grow our business thru word of mouth referrals and professional recommendations. As our customers, pharmacists, doctors and nurses have moved to other areas of the country, we have been able to continue to provide them with Flanders Buttocks Ointment thru our wholesaler network. The product is now available to virtually any pharmacy in the country. Even if your pharmacy does not have the product in stock, they can get it the next business day.
Ingredients
Our product consists of Zinc Oxide and white petrolatum which provide a very effective skin protectant and moisture barrier. We also include Peruvian Balsam which helps to promote healing. This combination provides a very effective preventative measure and diaper rash treatment as well as for heat rash treatment. The key to preventing and treating diaper rash is to keep the baby dry, clean, and cool with frequent diaper changes. At some point, virtually every infant will develop diaper rash or diaper dermatitis. The use of Flanders Buttocks Ointment will help to keep the diaper area dry and protected. Prevention is always easier than treatment. Also, as the population continues to age, we are seeing a large increase in the use of our product for adult diaper rash. It is also labeled for chafing and chapping for all age groups. Living in a coastal area, a lot of kids and adults will get chafed from playing in the sand and water all day at the beach, creating a very uncomfortable situation. Flanders Buttocks Ointment will provided protection and soothing relief for this "beach rash." Keep in mind that this product will stain clothing.
Where to buy
Our diaper rash cream is available nationwide primarily thru pharmacies. You do not need a prescription, but most pharmacies keep the product in the pharmacy department of the store. This is an excellent time for some face time with the pharmacist if you have any questions about diaper rash. Even if a pharmacy does not have the product in stock, they can obtain it for you the next day through our wholesaler network. Additionally, it is available thru numerous Internet sites if you prefer that route. Keep in mind that purchasing thru your local pharmacy gives you that opportunity to interact with a health care professional that can provide you with more information and tips and answer any questions you may have.
