Are the non-medicinal ingredients used in Preparation H products safe?
Yes, the non-medicinal ingredients present in Preparation H products are safe and approved by Health Canada. It is very challenging to formulate without the use of non-medicinal ingredients, which serve to keep the product stable and prevent the various ingredients from interacting. It is our policy to declare all ingredients on the carton.

Yes, all Preparation H products are gluten-free and suitable for individuals with Celiac Disease.
Preparation H contains yeast. Will I get a yeast infection if I use the product?
