We are working on building relationships with Drug Wholesalers, etc.., but it
takes time and a little help from you. If you would like to purchase Snow Balm from your local pharmacy or
store, please contact that store or pharmacy and request that they carry Snow
Balm. Relay your experiences and
how our product compares to the nationally marketed items.
Independent pharmacies are usually the easiest avenue for getting our
product in your area. However, we do distribute to Rite Aid, Eckerd and Wal-Mart
stores in our area, so it does not hurt to ask the large chain stores too. After making
contact with your pharmacy manager, please relay our information and then email
us that persons name and phone # so we may contact them with our product
information. This process does take time so you may want to place a small order while
we work on getting Snow Balm into your area.
With
your help we will be able to help children and adults everywhere who suffer from
diaper rash, chaffing, and minor skin irritations.
Snow Balm is a unique formula developed by Dr. Howard over 47 years ago. Snow Balm was a labor of love, because he was trying to perfect a treatment for his own children. His children had been suffering from diaper rash and he was not satisfied by the selection of ointments that were available on the market. So he went to the task of developing an ointment of his own. Upon developing this formula and using it on his own children, he saw how well his formula had worked and decided that he should make this diaper rash ointment available to his patients and friends.
Our company name is Snow Pharmaceuticals, LLC and we are the manufacturer and distributor of Snow Balm.
Snow Balm is a skin protectant. The main purpose is to relieve diaper rash and dry skin. Snow Balm also works well on diaper rash, rashes from incontinence, dry skin, minor skin irritations, chaffing, and severe chapped hands and feet.
Snow
Balm incorporates an ingredient that is recommended by most pediatricians,
Zinc Oxide. What makes our
formula different from the other ointments with Zinc Oxide is in the
percentages. We use 8.5% Zinc
Oxide. We have found that at this
percentage there is enough Zinc Oxide to heal the rash without causing further
skin irritation. Some ointments
on the market contain Zinc Oxide levels of 40%, which is the maximum allowable
limit by the FDA. Ointments with
these high levels can put babies with sensitive skin under undue stress and
irritation. We have had
parents tell us that when using products that contain these high levels of
Zinc Oxide that their baby would scream and showed signs of pain and
discomfort. So the bottom
line is "more is not always better."
Snow Balm is a superior moisture barrier. We use the highest quality ingredients and watch over each batch to insure the proper consistency and texture. One such attention to detail is the Lanolin that we use in Snow Balm. We use 100% pure hospital grade modified anhydrous lanolin.
Snow Balm was designed to work with your baby's skin. Our formula soothes on easily and moisturizes as it protects. The unique formula allows absorption into the skin and creates less residue to clean up at each diaper change. As you already know, some ointments are very thick and create a greasy film which has to be scrubbed off with rubbing and detergents, causing further skin breakdown. Snow Balm's formula absorbs and cleans-up easily. Most often all you need is a little warm water to rinse away any residue and body fluids that may be present. Usually the only time you will need to use a mild soap is when your child suffers from a bout of diarrhea and needs a little more attention.
Snow Balm's effectiveness is its simplicity.
Active Ingredient - Zinc Oxide (8.5% , a smaller percentage that most other brands, but effective enough to heal the rash without causing extra redness and irritation)
Inactive Ingredients - Lanolin (ultra pure hospital grade), Olive Oil, Petrolatum, and Thymol Iodide
Snow Balm formula does not include artificial fragrances, making our formula easier on children and adults who suffer from allergies and sensitive skin.
