First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new barrier cream (Dermategrity Everyday Barrier Cream) that combines zinc oxide with a natural plant extract to heal skin damage caused by fecal incontinence. The cream is designed to protect the skin and block harmful enzymes from stool. Researchers will compare it to a standard zinc oxide cream in 40 adults over 14 days, measuring healing and symptom relief.
