Abstract
A composition for preventing, mitigating, and alleviating irritation and skin trauma is described. The composition contains calcium glycerophosphate and at least one skin compatible, film-forming component. The composition may be applied to the skin prior to application of an adhesive tape to reduce damage to the skin which is inflicted upon removal of the tape by forming a film on the skin. Upon removal of the adhesive tape from the skin, the film, rather than skin cells, is removed with the tape. The calcium glycerophosphate component of the composition also penetrates the skin and serves to alleviate any damage which may be inflicted on the skin. The composition may also be applied to the skin to prevent subsequent irritation, such as irritation inflicted by contact with poison ivy, clothing, jewelry, insect bites, a prosthetic, etc. A medical dressing which contains the composition is also included. Finally, methods for preventing and mitigating skin irritation and trauma using the inventive composition are described.
