Usually, Itching leads to scratching which causes damage to the skin barrier & integrity. This damage creates a feedback loop and an increase in the release of pro-inflammatory mediators that worsen the itching, continuing the cycle.
Avenanthramides (AVAs) are one of the principle anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatories phytochemicals found in oats.Studies have shown that AVAs inhibit the activity of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) in keratinocytes & the release of pro inflammatory cytokines and histamine that are crucial in breaking the itch scratch cycle.

Oatveen Ultra is a topical formulation with improvedantimicrobial effect comprising of alfa-hydroxy acids (Glycolic& Lactic acid), Urea, Salicylic acid & Glycerol for management of hyperkeratotic and scaling skin disorders like ichthyosis, psoriasis, cradle cap, dandruff, keratosis, xerosis among others.

- Potential overgrowth of microorganisms on the skin surface,
- To promote normalization of the skin,
- Reduce signs of ageing especially hyperpigmentation & skin roughness.
Alpha-hydroxy acids (Glycolic & Lactic acids) reduce the cohesion between the corneocytes & interfere with the bonding between the cells, which causes an increased cell turnover at lower pH.
Urea is a naturally occurring humectant in human skin and it has also been discovered as a barrier-improving substance. The most well-known dermatologic effects from urea is its ability to unfold, solubilize and/ or denature proteins. High concentrations of urea above 10% in creams targeting severe cases ichthyosis and other hyperkeratotic conditions were found to have a pronounced keratolytic effect that made the subjects’ skin soft and pliable.
Salicylic acid is used at low concentrations in the formulation to promote the keratolysis and further strengthen the antimicrobial properties of the cream.
Glycerin ameliorates dry flaky skin by facilitating the digestion of the corneodesmosomes in patients with very dry skin.
