This is a miracle worker for dry rough cracked skin. It's great for elbows, knees, heels, feet, etc. It softens and heals in a couple of days with nightly use. Some nursing homes and hospitals use it on their patients and residents to prevent bed sores and pressure ulcers.

I truly love this product. I have a problem with zinc oxide ointments, i find that is darkens the baby's skin and is hard to clean up. Been using A&D from the 1.5 oz tubes and needed something bigger.
It comes off easily (off my hands too) and smells good.

when i was deployed over in iraq, i developed a severe rash as a result of being so hot and sweaty all the time. hurt like the dickens. so, when my daughter was born, i took it as my solemn duty to make sure she didn't get diaper rash. ever. i tried desitin, boudreax's, triple paste, etc. but nothing works as well as this stuff. the petrolatum makes an impermeable layer on the skin, keeping it moisturized and dry while the cod liver oil (the secret ingredient) and the lanolin help keep the skin healthy. great stuff!!!

This ointment helps keeps my hubands legs (he's 83 yrs old) smooth. It keeps my hands smooth. I think it is more than just for diaper rash that I thought it was.

I tried A&D when my daughter was a few months old, after we ran out of the Vitamin A & D packets that the nurses at the hospital sent us home with. And her diaper rash flared up to a painful bright red, once her skin was even slightly broken, that didn't go away no matter how much A&D I used, sometimes in combo with Desitin, how often I changed her diaper, or if I let her skin air dry before applying. I even switched to more expensive diapers with an extra mesh lining. All the while using more and more A&D. Nothing worked. Now I find out that the commercial brand A&D is NOT THE SAME THING AS VITAMIN A/VITAMIN D ointment. I guess from the other reviews I can start using this for myself when my hands/elbows/knees get really dry.

Read a lot of reviews before selecting AD ointment for my first baby since I buy in US and then have to haul everything back to Asia, I don't want to waste money or weight in my luggage hauling back bad products! I have used AD w every diaper change since baby arrived home and have had no sign of any rash despite living in a very hot and humid country. Would highly recommend.

Didn't yet use this as a diaper rash cream, but this is excellent for avoiding rashes on the tummy during pregrnancy. The skin has really come back soft and even the marks left behind by the rashes seems to be fading now.

This was a good deal and will last you forever. My baby is 3 months old and has never had anything close to a diaper rash so I guess it's pretty good.

Was recommended this by a friend to soothe a nasty diaper rash, and it worked wonders in just a few days! It's been around for eons, and still works great. We keep a tub on the changing table, and a squeeze tube in the diaper bag.

We love the A&D ointment for our daughter's diaper rash...it works better than the prescription stuff they gave her in the NICU. Easy to use and good price too!
