Calak-A Lotion belongs to a class of drugs called anti-itching agents used to treat mild itching in conditions such as rashes, eczema, sunburn, stings, insect bites, chickenpox, and poison ivy. Itching is an uncomfortable and irritating sensation which causes the urge to scratch.
Calak-A Lotion contains Calamine, Aloe vera, and Light liquid paraffin. Calamine causes a cooling sensation as it evaporates on the skin. Aloe vera moisturizes and soothes skin. Also, it improves the elasticity of the skin. Light liquid paraffin is an emollient (softens and soothes skin) that prevents loss of water from the outer layer of skin. Thus, it hydrates, softens the skin, and relieves dryness.
