Mazon Cream (Page 3)
Updated
Comments Submitted Says:
for eczema, psoriasis- seeping, cracking, blistering skin- I personally used it from the age of 6 mos. in 1955 to 1988, then it disappeared from shelves- it was an over the counter cream and it really worked. At the age of 3 months my skin would swell, crack and seep a clear liquid- a pediatrician introduced the cream to my mother and at the time they had a bar soap, shampoo and cream-of which I used occasionally over the course of 30 years then all of a sudden it disappeared. I did have part of a jar I used sparingly and guarded with my life and I called the company that made the cream and they said that they took the recipe out of circulation. The jar is long gone- sadly and I do not know the name of the pharmaceutical company that originally made it. I now am entering menopause and my skin has flared up out of control and cortisone creams makes my skin thin and easily bruised beneath the surface which is just as unsightly as the redness, swelling and seeping but not as painful. I really long for a good skin product. Mazon was a beige cream that resembled the inside of a milky way candy bar and I believe if I remember correctly that it was a tar based cream. I have tried other tar based ointments but the oily bases tend to only create more problems- even cortisone ointment does not work only the cream- but prolonged use has so many other negative effects- as I stated above thin skin, easily bruised-like blood looks like elderly skin that has a blood spill beneath the first layer of skin and I also notice very hairy growth from the cortisone on the forearms- thank goodness I'm a blonde. Anyway, do you know of this product Mazon or one similar that has been known to have good results??? Help Please send me any information on anything comparable- have you ever heard of MAZON cream??? Is it available again, if so where?

Hello I'm from Regina, SK also. I have been using Mazon creme for about 10 years. I use to be able to purchase it here, but I can't find it anymore. Did you find a place that carries it?

You are correct. I remember it contained Mercury, and I'm sure that's why it suddenly disappeared from the market. But everyone here is correct - it seemed to cure any skin problem!

I had eczema as a baby (1945) and my pediatrician gave us an RX salve made with mazon and sulfathiozole which my whole family used for all skin wounds until the ingredients left the market.... Probably replaced by Neosporin or Bacitracin. My mom died at age 85 still nursing our last prescription that she used for burns and paper cuts. I still have a small amount left and find it helps abrasions and burns heal better than newer products. It allows the skin to heal under the scab and keeps the scab pliable so it doesn't itch or pull off so easily.

Have you found anything? My mother in law says the same thing about mazon. Have you found the replacement you were looking for? Please let me know. My email is {edited for privacy}. Thank you.

No, they are not out of business. My chiropractor (here in Cincinnati) was so impressed with the product that I brought to his massage therapist and administrative clerk, who both were horribly affected by psoriasis, that he ordered it from dannorthlabs. This cream was also sent to a friend of mine in the Netherlands, right after the war, when an American soldier noticed that my friend's father had a severe case of eczema. It cleared up his eczema. The father was a coalminer and his little girl also had it. My sister-in-law in Canada grew up with psoriasis and when I asked her about Mazon cream, she said, I used it twenty years ago and it really helped. When I see all the ads on TV (all of a sudden the pharmaceuticals have located a possible gold mine, but some take 4 months to see any improvement, whereas Mazon clears the problem up in less than a week.) I wonder if they are making hay and not allowing the company that makes Mazon to produce their stuff anymore. They also make soap and shampoo. Do everything you can to obtain that cream. It works!!!

My husband used it for his eczema until it seemed to become unavailable. We would like to buy it again as his eczema has flared up.

You can still have a mazon type cream made with a prescription in Canada. Products with coal tar can no longer be sold because coal tar is a carcinogenic and considered bad for regular use.There are lots of compounding pharmacies that can do the job!

Hello everyone, I just wanted to let you know that I just purchased Mazon cream from Dannorth natural products. The phone number is 1-866-668-7993. I paid 2999 plus shipping and tax. The company who makes Mazon cream is Dannorth. I'm purchasing this cream for my one year old granddaughter who scratches her skin so bad that it bleeds. She has scratches all over her body. Right now she's on prednisone because nothing else is working. My mom did the same thing to her skin when she was a child and my grandmother found Mazon cream. It was the only thing that would work for her so I'm going to try it for my granddaughter. I will let you know how it works for her.

Sorry you can't find Mazon. I did find it on Amazon, and it is only made in Canada. It costs 29.95 a jar plus 10.00 shipping. Took 5-7 days to get to me. You need an Amazon account or know somebody who does that will order for you. Good luck.

This is where you can still get Mazon cream (I just got two jars myself): [email protected], it's from Dannorth Natural Laboratories Inc. 1885 Elements Road Unit #229 Pickering Ontario L1W3V4 Canada. I used it on my son when he was a baby. It took it away completely. It really works and I have always ordered it for friends.

I was told by a company who used to sell it that the FDA took it off the market due to the label not being accurate.

The cream worked wonders. I kept the jar for small pins etc and finally tossed but did read ingredients and it contained mercury. Best guess is that is why it was suddenly taken off market and formula disappeared.

Unfortunately for us, the old Mazon contained mercury and was pulled from our shelves long ago. I know it helped, because I used to use it. I think there is one obtainable online, but don’t expect that same cream that used to really help us.

Re: Sandy (# 8) 
The mazon I used was beige. I ordered one from canada, it was pink and didn't smell the same.
