Works well for my childOct 26, 2010
By daysleeper My son is now 2 years old, and in his time of using diapers we have sampled several different diaper ointments in search of the one that works best for us. My favorite so far, and the one we have used the most, is Desitin Maximum Strength Original Paste (I usually buy the 16 oz tub for the house, with a smaller tube for the diaper bag), with the other Desitin formulation (in the blue packaging) in 2nd place. This formula is thicker than the blue-packaged one. They have worked very well to prevent diaper rash, or heal it if he does get one.
I do have misgivings about some of the ingredients [BHA (butylated hydroxyanisole), methylparaben, and "fragrance"], based on current concerns over their possible health effects, but I have not yet found another ointment with ingredients I am more comfortable with that works as well for my child. (If you have recommendations, I'm happy to hear them!)

Great productJun 02, 2010

It works GREAT!! My pediatrician recommended it and my sister as well (mother of 3) If your baby has a diaper rash or you want to prevent it, then go for this one. Be sure to get the original if your baby has a severe rash because it heals faster than the creamy one.

Best diaper rash creamMay 27, 2010
By William R.C. I use this cream on my now 4 months old daughter, and it is the best to prevent and treat diaper rash because of the zinc oxide content. I tried others when she was a newborn and non worked as well.

May work on Rash, but STINKS!Mar 09, 2010
By WickedQueen Goodness gracious but this stuff stinks to HIGH heaven! I use it as a preventive measurement since my son rarely suffers from diaper rash, but good googly moogly, this stuff smells worse than poop. I mean, you'd think if Johnson & Johnson were going to add a fragrance they might have thought to add one that didn't smell so rancid.
Other than that, I do like the nice thick consistency, but with one drawback: it is so thick that it really adheres to my baby's bottom when I am trying to clean him off and leaves an opaque film behind. In some cases it helps the poop adhere to my son's butt, too!
You get a lot of product with these two jars, but I honestly don't think my nose can tolerate the smell for much longer. If it were easier to clean off, I might reconsider....NAH! No more Desitin for this household.
****I am updating my review because, though stinky, nothing else keeps my six month old son's butt rash-free better than Desitin (including the recommended Butt Paste). The smell is a small price to pay for my son's comfort.
