Zanfel Poison Ivy, Oak & Sumac Wash is a safe and effective topical solution for the reaction caused by exposure to poison ivy, poison oak, and sumac. It is the only product known to remove urushiol, the toxin responsible for the reaction, from your skin, instead of just treating the symptoms. When used correctly, Zanfel relieves itching and pain caused by urushiol within about 30 seconds! Unlike Zanfel, other products temporarily reduce itching but do nothing to remove urushiol.
Zanfel removes urushiol by binding with it to create an aggregated cluster, which can quickly and effectively be washed away with water. Zanfel can be used at any time after exposure. Zanfel can be applied to any external body area, including the face and genitals, and is safe for use by children and pregnant or nursing women. In the case of systemic, or blood-based reactions, prescription steroids are usually required. If you suspect a systemic reaction, see your doctor immediately.
