Sudocrem is a popular, multi-purpose antiseptic healing cream first developed in 1931 by a Dublin pharmacist, Thomas Smith, to treat skin issues like nappy rash, eczema, minor burns, and acne. Known for its distinctive scent and thick texture, it creates a protective barrier with zinc oxide, soothing and aiding skin healing, and has become a household staple in many countries, expanding from its Irish origins to become a global brand sold in over 40 countries.
