Summary
This study tested a moisturizing cream (RV5075A-MF6793) on 62 adults with controlled diabetes who had dry, cracked feet. Participants applied the cream or a comparison product twice daily for 28 days. Researchers measured skin dryness, fissure healing, itching, pain, and quality of life. The goal was to see if the cream could improve foot skin comfort and hydration.
