My mother is 93 yrs old and has been suffering from severe itching on her body for the last 4 years. Which ointment would you recommend? I read an article on pine tar and your company was mentioned.

Hello,
For lack of background information, we would suggest that you seek a medical opinion. If your Mother is already under the care of a doctor and has been prescribed cortisone creams, with little effect, we would suggest washing/cleansing with the Pintarsol Gel for itch and inflammation.
Apply Pinetarsol Gel to damp skin and leave in contact with the skin for 2 to 3 minutes before rinsing off. Then we would recommend using either the Intensive with Ceramides Light Moisturising Cream (unbroken skin) or QV Intensive with Ceramides Ointment (broken and/or inflamed skin).
We hope this has helped!
