Physician's Materia Medica on Zinc Oleate
ZINC OLEATE
The preparation so named is in fact usually a mixture of Oleate with Palmitate and Stearate, occurring in the form of a powder quite free from grittiness. Very useful in excessive perspiration of the feet, in moist eczema and similar conditions; applied by dusting over the surface, also in ointments used like Zinc ointment.1
