Frequently Asked Questions about IvyBlock® Lotion.

How does IvyBlock® lotion protect me from poison ivy, oak, and sumac?
A: Easily. When applied to the skin prior to contact, the active ingredient in IvyBlock®, bentoquatam, serves as a barrier that blocks the allergenic oil (urushiol) in these poisonous plants from reaching the skin and starting the development of the rash.

Does IvyBlock® lotion require a prescription?
A: No, IvyBlock® is an over-the-counter (OTC) product and requires no prescription. It is available at drug stores nationwide and safety departments in select companies across the country.

How do you use IvyBlock® lotion and when should it be applied?
A: Easily. IvyBlock® is applied to the skin before risk of exposure. It should be applied to clean, dry skin at least 15 minutes before exposure risk. Re-application is recommended after 4 hours to maintain the maximum level of protection. Emergency workers who do not wash off IvyBlock do not need to reapply if it is inconvenient.

Is IvyBlock® lotion safe? Will it irritate the skin?
A: IvyBlock® is very safe and should not irritate the skin. Tests show IvyBlock® is non-irritating and non-sensitizing (non-allergenic). As with any product, individuals should read the directions and ingredients before use. Do not use if you react to any of the ingredients.

Is IvyBlock® lotion a seasonal product?
A: No, because poison ivy rash is not seasonal. Urushiol, the allergenic substance that causes poison ivy, oak, and sumac rashes, is a very stable chemical and can cause a reaction even during the cold weather months. Poison plants contain urushiol throughout the year and the oil is potent in all seasons. Use of IvyBlock® can be beneficial all year long, especially for very sensitive individuals.

If I wear gloves or protective clothing, do I still need to apply IvyBlock® lotion?
A: Yes, absolutely. Apply IvyBlock® to skin areas at risk of exposure. This includes secondary contact areas, which can result from transfer of the oil from contaminated clothing, shoes/boots, tools, and pets. For maximize protection, apply IvyBlock® to arms, hands, and legs even when protective clothing is worn.

How frequently should IvyBlock® lotion be reapplied?
A: IvyBlock® should be applied every four hours to maintain the maximum level of protection. Emergency workers who do not wash off IvyBlock® do not need to reapply if it is inconvenient.

How does the skin feel once IvyBlock® lotion has been applied?
A: After IvyBlock® lotion dries, the skin will feel natural. The lotion is non-greasy and will not adversely affect the normal skin properties. A faint white coating on the skin will be observed on some people when the lotion dries.
