Coloplast Atrac-Tain moisturizing cream 5 oz tube — 10% urea & 4% lactic AHA, fragrance-free

Atrac-Tain Moisturizing Cream is a concentrated 5 oz topical cream from Coloplast formulated with 10% urea and 4% alpha-hydroxy acid to soften, exfoliate and replenish very dry, rough, or calloused skin.

This rich, nongreasy formula blends urea and lactic acid to address thickened, scaly areas while helping skin retain moisture. Designed for targeted use on feet, hands, elbows and other rough patches, the cream comes in a squeezable 5 oz tube for home or clinical use. It is free of fragrances, dyes and common preservatives and compatible with chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) products.

How does Atrac-Tain soften and exfoliate hard, calloused skin?

The combination of 10% urea and 4% lactic acid works by loosening and hydrating the outer layers of the skin, helping dead skin cells shed more readily. Urea attracts and binds moisture while lactic acid assists mild chemical exfoliation, producing smoother texture over repeated use.

• 10% urea for intensive hydration and keratolytic action
• 4% alpha-hydroxy (lactic) acid for gentle exfoliation
• Non-irritating vehicle suitable for thickened skin areas
• Fragrance-, dye- and preservative-free for sensitive skin

How should I apply it to get visible improvement?

Apply a thin layer to clean, dry skin once or twice daily, concentrating on rough or cracked zones. Gently massage until absorbed; for heavily calloused areas, apply at night and cover with a sock or glove to improve penetration.

• Use on feet, heels, elbows, knees and hands as needed
• Daily use yields gradual softening and smoother texture
• Avoid broken or infected skin; consult a clinician if unsure

Is Atrac-Tain safe to use with other cleansing or wound-care products?

The cream is CHG compatible, meaning it can be used in regimens that include chlorhexidine gluconate cleansers. Because it is free of fragrances and dyes, it integrates well with many skin-care and hygiene routines, but it should not be applied to open wounds without professional advice.

• Compatible with CHG-based cleansers and protocols
• Fragrance- and dye-free to reduce irritation risk
• Do not use on open or infected lesions without guidance

What are the key ingredients and why they matter?

The active components are 10% urea and 4% lactic acid, supported by emollients and stabilizers that deliver moisture and improve spreadability. The formulation balances exfoliation with hydration to address tough, dry skin while keeping application comfortable.

• 10% urea: hydrates and softens hardened skin
• 4% lactic acid (AHA): promotes gentle chemical exfoliation
• Isopropyl/octyl palmitate and glyceryl stearate: emollients for a smooth finish

Who is this for? Atrac-Tain Moisturizing Cream is aimed at adults who need extra-strength topical care for very dry, scaly, or calloused skin on feet, hands and other rough areas. It is suitable for those seeking an unscented, preservative-free option that pairs with standard hygiene products. If you have open sores, active infection, or a complex medical condition affecting skin, check with a healthcare professional before starting any new topical regimen.
