Mazon Cream (Page 4) (Top voted first)
Updatedfor 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 The jar is long gone- sadly and I do not know the name of the pharmaceutical company that originally made it.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?
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.
Hi Drea, did the Mazon work for your granddaughter??
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.

Same here......covered with eczema as an infant through teens, through 50s & 60s. Mazon is what helped. Bring it back.
Re: Sandy (# 59)
I have been trying to find out if Mazon contained compounds of mercury when I was treated with it 80 years ago for eczema. Your post caught my attention. Do you have any further information on the formulation back in the 30's. It worked, but I wonder if it could be responsible for my current problems with CFS and fibromyalgia. I used a lot of it over extended periods.
I am also searching for this product. It worked so well and then, as you say, vanished...and was replaced with inferior products that don't work at all.
Re: Maija (# 67)
I would like to order one each (1ea.) of all the MAZON products you have. Let me know item prices and total price, tax, and S/H. I live in the USA. My name is Jose A. Mazon. I do not know how else to order these items. I have an AMAZON Visa Card which I can use for payment. Please, respond ASAP!
I had the same experience. During the 1950s, as a child I suffered from an unsightly and itchy rash affecting the crooks of my elbows, back of my neck and ears, lips, and scalp seemingly resulting from a citrus fruit allergy. My parents took me to many doctors but found nothing continuously effective. A pharmacist at a local drugstore happened to mention Mazon soap and salve to my mother. And voila', my troubles were gone. Then Mazon products "mysteriously" disappeared. I eventually outgrew the rash. However, I have rare minor outbreaks very infrequently. Hopefully, because of this MedsChat, I may be able to find and purchase the products again. O happy possible day!
Re: Platelady (# 69)
I was born in 1937 and had eczema covering my body from head to toe almost from birth. The only medication that gave me any relief was Mason. I used it continuously until I was about twenty years old and I haven’t had any problems since then. Mason was the only medication that worked. To bad it isn’t available today.
Re: Lynn Harper (# 11)
The orignal Mazon had mercury in it.
Re: Lynn Harper (# 11)
I think it might have been mercury.
Re: Debbie (# 10)
Yes, I too thought that I was the only one that remembered it.
Mazon cream is back, and when I called they mentioned if there was significant interest they would bring back the soap. If anyone is still looking for it, the cream is available at mazon-online.com Hope this can help you like it did me.
