Boudreaux's Original Butt Paste Diaper Rash Treatment, 16% Zinc Oxide, 4 oz Tube

A trusted zinc-oxide barrier paste — the kind that families and caregivers reach for the moment they spot the first sign of redness, whether on a baby’s bottom or an adult’s skin under incontinence wear.

This is the Boudreaux's Original Butt Paste Diaper Rash Treatment, 16% Zinc Oxide, 4 oz Tube. Zinc-oxide diaper rash treatments work the same way no matter who uses them: a thick, water-resistant layer sits between damp skin and the urine, stool, or moisture that’s irritating it, giving the skin a protected environment to heal. This formula is approximately 16% zinc oxide — the active ingredient. Diaper Rash Treatment Boudreaux's Butt Paste® 4 oz. Tube Scented Cream.

Specifications

Ideal For

• Parents managing baby diaper rash — the classic use case, and what most of these brands were built for
• Caregivers preventing or treating incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD) in adults wearing briefs or pull-ons
• Long-term care facilities, hospices, and home-care teams that stock barrier ointment alongside briefs and underpads
• Bedwetting and overnight wear in older children and teens, where skin sits against moisture for hours
• Anywhere wet skin meets fabric or paper — post-surgical drainage areas, stoma adjacents, sweat zones in larger patients

How to Use

Clean the affected area gently and pat (don’t rub) dry. Apply a thick layer over irritated skin at every diaper or brief change — the layer should be visible, not absorbed in. For prevention rather than active rash, a thin layer at each change is enough. Do not use on broken skin, deep cuts, infected areas, or burns. If rash persists more than 7 days, worsens, or shows signs of infection (oozing, fever, spreading redness), stop use and consult a clinician. For adult IAD, pair with a properly fitted absorbent product and consider a no-rinse perineal cleanser at every change.
