Medela Purelan Lanolin Cream FAQ's
How does the lanolin cream work?
Thanks to its rich texture, Purelan™ creates a protective layer on skin's surface and rehydrates from within.
Does nipple cream help with pain?
Please note that Purelan™ is not licensed as a medical product for pain relief or designed for the therapeutic treatment of pain. If you are experiencing breast pain or other health problems, please seek advice from your medical practitioner. Purelan™ is formulated to provide fast relief from nipple soreness and dry skin.
What makes Purelan™ hypoallergenic?
Purelan™ formulation has been developed to minimize its allergenic potential. Carefully controlling the levels of FLA (free lanolin alcohols) in lanolin can reduce skin reactions even among those who are already sensitive to lanolin. Research shows that reducing the FLA content to less than 3%, particularly when detergent residues have been removed from the product, reduces the incidence of positive patch-test reactions among lanolin-sensitive skin patients. With an alcohol fraction of less than 3% in Purelan™, the allergenic potential to lanolin alcohols, which is observed rarely, is reduced to an absolute minimum as per EP (European Pharmacopeia). Purelan™ does not contain other additives that might cause a reaction, such as preservatives and fragrances.
What ingredients does the lanolin cream contain?
Purelan™ contains 100% ultra-pure, medical-grade lanolin. It is ethically sourced from mulesing-free farms. Our all-natural formula is dermatologically tested, hypoallergenic, and suitable for sensitive skin.

Does Purelan™ lanolin cream have side effects?
Purelan™ lanolin cream is an ultra-pure, medical-grade lanolin formula.
