Urea Cream
Compounded urea cream is a prescription-only topical treatment used to soften and hydrate thickened, rough, or scaly skin. Urea acts as a keratolytic and humectant, helping to break down hardened protein (keratin) in the outer layer of skin while drawing in moisture to improve texture and barrier function. It is frequently prescribed for conditions such as keratosis pilaris, eczema, ichthyosis, and chronic dry or cracked skin. Our pharmacy compounds urea cream in customized strengths—commonly 10%, 20%, or 40%—and dermatology-safe bases to meet patient-specific needs and tolerability.
Prescribers choose urea because compounding lets them dial the concentration to the job — lower strengths for intensive moisturizing, higher strengths for softening thick or callused skin. We compound each cream to the exact strength your prescriber specifies, in a rich base, prepared individually for each prescription.
Urea cream is a compounded medication prepared to your prescription and used under a prescriber's guidance. Your prescriber will set the strength and where to apply it. Every batch is pharmacist-compounded, quality-verified, and shipped nationwide. Prescription required.
Frequently asked questions
What does urea cream do?
It deeply hydrates dry skin and, at higher strengths, softens and breaks down thick, hardened skin like calluses and rough patches.
What is it used for?
Severely dry heels, calluses, thickened nails, and rough, scaly skin that ordinary lotions don't resolve.
Does strength matter?
Yes — lower strengths moisturize while higher strengths soften thick skin, so your prescriber picks the concentration for your need.
Why choose a compounded cream?
Compounding matches the exact strength and base to your skin, prepared fresh for each prescription.
Do I need a prescription?
Yes. Urea cream is compounded to your prescriber's order and requires a valid prescription. Our pharmacists prepare and verify every batch.
