Thornton & Ross has taken the decision to discontinue Metanium Nappy Rash Ointment.

This is due to constraints that have impacted our ability to guarantee consistent supply and maintain the high standards of excellence we strive for in all our products.

We understand Metanium Nappy Rash Ointment was a valued product and we assure you that this decision was not taken lightly. Our commitment to continuously providing effective and high-quality products remains unwavering.

Though not a treatment for nappy rash, we continue to offer another product, Metanium Everyday Barrier Ointment, which is designed to provide effective protection against the irritants that can cause nappy rash whilst maintaining the skin's natural barrier.

We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience discontinuation of Metanium Nappy Rash Ointment may cause. If you have any questions or require further information, please do not hesitate to contact our customer experience team at: CustomerExperienceteam@thorntonross.com

Metanium Everyday Barrier Ointment

Metanium Everyday Barrier Ointment cares for delicate skin by forming a barrier to help protect against the causes of nappy rash.

With a fragrance and lanolin free formula, suitable for vegans, it protects and moisturises babies’ skin. It can be used at every nappy change, from birth onwards and one tube should last 30 days, based on six changes a day.

Did you know..?

Newborn babies look absolutely gorgeous but sometimes also rather funny. The soft spots on the front and backs of their heads (called fontanelles) are there because they had to get through the birth canal. Also, their eyes might be shut, though once they open, they love looking at faces and will soon recognise their mum and dad!

Did you know..?

Toddlers have small tummies and need lots of variety, so to help them grow strong and healthy it’s important to give them foods that are packed with nutrients, and avoid foods full of empty calories (like sweets and fizzy drinks).

Metanium Nappy Rash Ointment is a medicine. Always read the label.
