Whether you are on holiday exploring another country or relaxing in your back garden, enjoyment of the great outdoors will always come with a risk of discomfort from insects and nettles.
Anthisan Bite & Sting Cream helps relieve the symptoms of insect bites, stings and nettle rash
Anthisan Bite & Sting Cream has been designed so it can be used by adults, elderly and children over 2 years of age
Anthisan Cream
An insect bite or sting can produce pain, heat or itching, redness and swelling.
This is because when your skin is attacked it releases chemicals from cells – mainly histamine which:
- Stimulate nerve endings – causing pain
- Increase blood flow to the damaged area – causing redness; and
- Alter the tissue fluid balance to dilute and limit the effects of toxins introduced – causing swelling.
Sensitive individuals have a hypersensitivity reaction which produces a much more severe version of these symptoms.
Anthisan Bite & Sting Cream is specifically formulated to prevent histamine from acting on the tissues and causing symptoms.
So whether you’re planning a holiday in the UK or abroad, or just want to be ready for your next encounter with an insect or nettle, Anthisan Bite & Sting Cream is a small, convenient, tube of soothing cream that can be applied directly to the site of the insect bite, insect sting or stinging nettle rash to relieve the irritation.
