Lanolin is taken from sheep's wool and put in ointments used to treat various skin ailments including diaper rash and extremely dry patches on infant skin. Corona brand lanolin products are made for animals but are sometimes recommended by parents for the treatment of diaper rash because it is so thick and water resistant. Parents should discuss its use on their baby with a health care professional.
Use a cotton swab or other applicator to collect a small amount of Lanolin Corona from the container.
Rub the ointment over the diaper rash, patch of dry skin or other similar skin irritation. Use only a small amount the first time you apply it to your baby's skin.
Diaper the baby or clothe as usual.
Monitor the baby for adverse reactions to the ointment. It is possible for the baby to be allergic or sensitive to the lanolin.
