I have been using Ultravate cream for my psoriasis for many years and now I
am told that it has been discontinued!!! I can't believe it. It has been a
lifesaver. Is there any way possible to get this product? Is there any
stock left? Looking forward from hearing from you. Thank you. Kelly

Sir: I am a 40-year+ user of Lowila. It has kept my hands and fingers
"manageable". It appears that the product has been discontinued, and I
badly need your commendation as to an alternative "soap substitute" which
will, like Lowila, not irritate my all-too-sensitive hands. Your help is
earnestly solicited, and thank you. Bob Hazlett

Do you manufacture estar. If so where can it be purchased in the Buffalo,
N.Y. area.
Lyn Lehmann 06 Aug 2009, 20:07
Do you still sell Lowila, a gentle soap for sensitive skin, and if so,
where in San Jose, CA can I buy it? I used to buy it at Long's and have
been using it for 20-30 years but can't get it now. Any help?

Hi West Wood Squibb, Canada
Could you please help me to find in which drugstore I can buy the Sebulex shampoo in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. I have tried in several drugstores, but they say they don't carry those products anymore. I used it successfully for 50 years. Thank you, Will B. P.S.

Could you please help me find where I can get Lowila soap. My family and I
use this product and can not find it anywhere. Or is there something else
that works JUST as well as Lowila. Thank you for your help.
Bonnie 07 Oct 2009, 04:56
can you tell me where I can purchase either sebutone or sebulex shampoo. I
have used both for several years for psoriasis, as well as exzema in the
scalp. I dare say it has been with much success, and I am disappointed
that I am not able to find it in Manitoba. Has it been discontinued, and
if so, WHY? Please advise, and thanks for your help with this.

I am looking for Lowila soap. Cannot find it in Nashville area or

offer it.
It is a very good product for people with sensitive skin. Thank you.

My mom's birthday is coming up and she has used Lowila soap since she was a
child. It is nowhere to be found and I really would love to give her some
Lowila soap for her birthday because of this.
Please tell me where to find it. If it has been discontinued, could you please tell me why? Thanks!
Dianne Murland 14 Nov 2009, 11:28
I have been using Lowila soap for over 35 years and now am unable to locate
it even on internet. Is it really discontinued? I have noticed comments of
other people also trying to find it. Is there any hope of getting it
somewhere or somehow?
Thanks!
Annette Blair 15 Nov 2009, 05:07
Like so many others I have been using Lowila for over 40 years. If it has
been discontinued can you recommend another product that has similar
ingredients and work as well. Please let me know. I'm down to my last bar.
Melinda Howard 16 Nov 2009, 04:55

Westwood Squibb is a subdivision of Bristol-Myers Squibb pharmaceutical corporation and you can ask them about various products directly for example here: in Canada: http://www.bmscanada.ca/bms/contactus/ USA and international: http://www.bms.com/contact/Pages/home.aspx
Longtime Lowila User 17 Nov 2009, 04:53
I've been using Lowila for almost 30 years and it appears to be
discontinued. In my search for this product, it looks like you have been
purchased by another company. Does the new company plan on reintroducing
this product under a different name or different packaging? If so, can you
please tell me the new name or the new expected release date. Thank you for
your time.
c stevenson 20 Nov 2009, 06:28
up until a few years ago, i used lowila soap for about 30 odd years. then
suddenly i could find it nowhere. it is the only soap that worked with my
eczema. the rest make me breakout, even the oatmeal ones.
somebody had mentioned somewhere, that it was the boric acid in the soap and that it was toxic and could build up in your system, when absorbed through the skin. well i used it for decades with no ill effects ever! whats going on, why can't i get it or something like it anymore??? please bring lowila back to ontario canada!!!
Maggie Loates 24 Nov 2009, 11:41
I've been using Lowila for about 30 years too and it's the only cleanser
that I'm not allergic to. Please don't discontinue it. I'm desperate as
I've never found anything else as good for my skin as Lowila.
Linda 25 Nov 2009, 10:41

Lowila User 28 Nov 2009, 23:36
Hello - I've been using Lowila for years. Is it no longer manufactured? I
can't find it anywhere.
Susan Renouf 03 Dec 2009, 19:43
I have severe exzema on my hands and have been using Ultravate for many
years to relieve the problem. I was told this product has been discontinued
and it was very difficult to fill my last few prescriptions. I am totally
out of it now and am not happy with the products the pharmacist has
suggested as a replacement. What do you suggest. I really liked the
consistancy of Ultravate and you didn't feel it on your skin after applying
it. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. Susan Renouf
Brenda Marwitz 07 Dec 2009, 09:23
I too am a faithful Lowila user and can't find it. Please let me know if
you are discontinuing it. I have used it for years with no ill effects.

I would like to know if Lowila Soap will ever be manufactured again. I
have severe allergies to cosmetics and this was the only soap I could use
without problems. I stocked up from a supplier on eBay, but now I don't
know what I can use once my supply runs out. Please help!!!!

Please let me know if lowilla soap is still available
I want my Lowila Soap! 27 Dec 2009, 04:18
Now that it appears that Lowila is no longer being manufactured, has anyone
found a suitable substitute? I've read comments from many former users and
I was shocked how many depended on this product -- I thought I was alone.
I'm down to my last bar of Lowila and just tried to find some to order, without success. Since I'm late to the 'discontinued' parade I was hoping that other eczema may have already found a replacement. Thanks
The Silence is Deafening 28 Dec 2009, 03:49
I too have been using Lowila soap for almost 40 years and have been unable
to find it for months. I have sensitive skin which is reacting poorly to
every substitute I have tried.
I find Bristol-Myers Squibb's failure to announce or explain its decision to discontinue Lowila disrespectful to its clearly loyal customers. The fact that Westwood-Squibb has steadfastly ignored direct queries about Lowila from faithful customers for five straight months is, frankly, arrogant and insulting. To be honest, the company's behavior is so inexplicably contrary to good customer service principles I can't help but wonder whether there really was a health risk associated with use of Lowila and whether the company is now desperately trying to avoid lawsuits. I welcome any information anyone has to share about the fate of Lowila, rumored health risks associated with it, and possible substitutes available currently.
Mary Reeves 28 Dec 2009, 03:53
My grandson has severe eczema as did my son when he was a child. The only
thing that helped my son was Lowila but I cannot find it for my grandson.
Can you help me by telling me where I can find it? Thanks!
Judith Hunter 05 Jan 2010, 09:47
Dear Sirs:
I have just taken all my little scraps of Lowila and molded them into what my be the last remaining cake of Lowila soap in the world. Could you please tell me 1) Where I can buy more Lowila soap? 2) What are the ingredients of Lowila soap? 3) What is a comparable soap that I could buy if Lowila is truly no longer available. Thank you very much.
Deborah Steelwright 10 Jan 2010, 07:05
Please advise me of any replacements for Lowila soap as I have been using
it for about 40 years and now can't find where to purchase it either. I

irritate my sensitive skin.

susan mallow 29 Jan 2010, 03:29
Hello:
I can see that you have received numerous inquiries regarding Lowilla... where can it be purchased, why have you discontinued a fabulous product like this when there are sooo many loyal users. I was prescribed this product almost 40 years ago by my specialist and I have no idea what i can use that would provide me with the same gentle and loving care. Please make a suggestion or advise of any companies that may have purchased the item and will sell in bulk to my family and myself. Thanks for taking the time to read this request and responding. Susan.
Lowila Lover 30 Jan 2010, 03:28
I too am looking for Lowila soap. My understanding is that you sold this
part of the company to Raxbury Pharmaceuticals and Raxbury has discontinued
it's production (they say they can't find anybody to make the soap). Are
you selling a comparable products? I've tried: Cetaphil Gentle Cleansing
Bar and Basis Sensitive Skin Bar and both irritated my skin. I'm now using
Aveno Moisturizing Bar and though it doesn't give me a rash like the
others, my skin feels drier than with Lowila. Do you have a product or are
you in the process of making a product similar to Lowila?
yvonne beeney 04 Feb 2010, 09:53
Hi I too am looking for a replacement for my Lowila soap.A product I have
used over 30 years it was perscribed at the time, and it was the best on
the market.I have tried other products but no luck my skin is sufferring.
I use it because my skin is very oilly do you have any thing similar or can
you recommend something. My dermatologist had nothing to offer in its
place. He knew nothing of the product untill I showed him .Thank you for
your time.
Marti 08 Feb 2010, 05:13
I am also looking for Lowila soap which I have been using for about 25
years. Can you please recommend a substitute? Please consider manufacturing
this again!
Margaret 17 Feb 2010, 16:19
I am also looking for Lowila soap which I have used for 40+ years for my
very sensitive skin. I have tried other cleansing bars and the other
soap-free bars just do not compare to the gentleness of Lowila. It was
discontinued about a year ago and I was frantic because I couldn't find it
for about 6 months, but then they started manufacturing it again much to my
relief. Now it's been discontinued again and I can't find it anywhere. This
product has a very loyal customer base and so I hope the manufacturer will
reconsider their decision to discontinue it.
June 17 Feb 2010, 19:41
I have also been using Lowila soap for about 30 years and I am devasted
that it is no longer in production. Can you suggest an equivalent soap?
jennifer asbedian 18 Feb 2010, 23:33

mess now. can you suggest an equivalent soap.
thank you
Alicia Layne 20 Feb 2010, 02:05

Arlene Ginsberg 22 Feb 2010, 22:58
I know Ranbaxy bought Lowila. It's hard to get an answer from them. Is
there any chance that Lowila will come back. I also have read your comments
and thought I was the only one who missed it.
Thank you!
V.Faye McAllaster 02 Mar 2010, 12:56
I too have used Lowila for over 40 years..was recommended by the skin
Doctor. I cannot find it in any Portland, ORegon area at any store. Could
you tell me where I can find it?
Please reply
Betty J. Paxson 04 Mar 2010, 13:07
Have you discontinued Lowila Soap? I certainly hope not.I have been using
it for over 40 years and it is the only soap that does break me out or burn
my skin. Please let me know where I can order Lowila. Thank you.
nancy barnes 06 Mar 2010, 18:04
I need Lowila Soap. How can a company just stop producing providing or
giving tangible substitutes. where is your sense of decency and
professionalism?
Mike Standley 09 Mar 2010, 11:25
I too am looking for Lowila BAr Soap.
Did you stop producing it?
scotto 10 Mar 2010, 23:28
Lowila was the only soap-like thing I've found that worked with my skin.
Since production stopped, I've tried at least six substitutes, all of which
were supposed to be hypoallergenic and all of which caused problems.
Please bring Lowila back, or at least make the ingredients public so that it can be duplicated.
Linda 11 Mar 2010, 02:19
Please please bring Lowila back. Does anybody answer these guestions about
Lowila?
Margaret 11 Mar 2010, 17:25
I called Ranbaxy Pharmaceuticals and asked them about the status of Lowila.
They said they were discontinuing it. Their toll free number is
888-726-2299.
I was also told by the proprietor of a health food store that often when a company is bought out, the new manufacturer will often discontinue a product and then re-introduce it to the market in new packaging. I don't know if that's what Ranbaxy will do, but I hope so.
DP 23 Mar 2010, 09:27
I was told by Ranbaxy they have found a manufacturer and Lowila will be
re-introduced by this summer.
V. Faye McAllaster 23 Mar 2010, 17:30
Is there any place that I can order Lowila bar soap. I am desperate to
find it. If it is still made and what drug store can I find it. With all
the demand it would seem that you would carry it.
Susie Babby 28 Mar 2010, 11:23
Dear Sirs,
Could you tell me how to order Fostril, or where I can buy the product in Tucson, Arizona? I have used the product for 40 years and need to order more. Thank you.

scotto 13 Apr 2010, 23:26
The unscented version of Aveno seems to be the only Lowila replacement that
works for my skin. Finding it (thanks to "Lowila Lover" above) was a great
relief. I've tried six other hypoallergenic cleansers and all of them
caused irritation. Even after nearly two month's use, Aveno seems OK.
Nancy 24 Apr 2010, 08:34
I have a friend that will soon be celebrating her 70th birthday. She has
used Lowils soap since her teen years and for the last 10 years has looked
to me for her birthday gift of the Lowila Soap bars. I normally purchase
hera case at a time! Where can I find Lowila soap or what is your
suggestion for a comparison? Will it be re-appearing this summer to your
knowledge? I also grew up on Westwood-Squibb products and trust your
judgement and suggestions. Please help soon.
Janet 25 Apr 2010, 18:27
I have also used Lowila for at least 35 years, and I am desperately trying
to find more. Why oh why do these companies drop a product when it is so
popular? It couldn't have been dangerous if so many people used it without
harm. It was the only soap that would clean my oily skin without drying it.
This is so depressing.
V. Faye McAllaster 28 Apr 2010, 17:28
On March 2, 2010 you informed me that you were trying to find a resource to
make Lowila and have it back on the market again, have you had any success?
I'm out of it and need some so badly...I've used it over 40 years.
If it is on the market please avise where I can purchase. I'm in the Portland, OR area. Please reply.
randomizer 29 Apr 2010, 14:34
I just talked to Ranbaxy today. The company is still looking for a
manufacturer to produce Lowila.

market as of last week.
The number I called is (609) 720-9200.
DP 15 Jun 2010, 02:05
I called and Ranbaxy confirmed that 2 weeks ago they made a shipment of
Lowila soap to their distributors. I asked if it was the same formula and
name and they said Yes.
Lee 22 Jun 2010, 04:35
If anyone has luck locating/purchasing Lowila soap, now that it is
supposedly back on the market, will you please share where you found it.
Thank you!

DP 09 Jul 2010, 13:59
According to Ranbaxy's distributor AmerisourceBergen (800-759-8810) only
their customers can request the Lowila soap. They would not give me
specific customer name's, but their website mentions Good Neighbor
Pharmacy. I found one locally and they called to order and were told it is
not yet available.

It was the only thing that seemed to work! Now what? And why did it get
discontinued?
bwc 19 Jul 2010, 15:14
Thanks to all your info I was able to place an order for Lowila at
hocks.com, where I had purchased it before. The site said a quantity was
available for shipping! let's see if it arrives...
DP 20 Jul 2010, 10:45
Thanks for the info. I just placed an order with Hocks. Will let you know
if it works like the old one. I think one ingredient changed and they said
it smells different.

Hello,
I live in Miami and would like to either order or directly purchase another tube of Fostril. I have been using your product for over 30 years. Please advise. Much thanks, Gary
RHP 14 Aug 2010, 08:27
I am a 30 year user of Lowila, and just recently found out about all the
troubles obtaining it. This is all so very disappointing. Thank you
everyone for being on top of this one. I live in Atlanta and the drug
stores are not able to order Lowila. Apparently Hocks didn't realize the
demand, because they appear to be out of stock. I would like to know how
everyone feels about the "new" Lowila. Please keep me advised. Thanks.
AMiller 20 Aug 2010, 11:15
Just went to Hocks. They're now out of stock on Lowila. I hope they get
more soon.
Has anyone who received the new "re-formulated" Lowila experienced any problems with it? Thank you,
Jamesy2u 22 Aug 2010, 14:13
Help may be on the way!!!!!! This week 8/20/10 I ordered remanufactured
Lowila, Its called Lowila Care.
I've tried a cleansing bar called Sabamed it was ok but not good enough to replace Lowila. The remanufactured Lowila obviously doesn't have the same ingredients but appears to have similar ingredients. Lowila Care is soap free just like Lowila, I will post my opinion after I've used it for a while. James,
DP 09 Sep 2010, 14:22
It is not controlling my eczema like the original formula. I may have to go
back to Cetaphil. Has anyone found a suitable replacement for the original
Lowila soap.
Josy 15 Sep 2010, 08:05
Somewhat repeating from a review listed on Amazon.com, this new Lowila from
Ranbaxy (in a White/Blue/Red package) is nothing like the old Lowila (in a
Yellow/Green/Red package) made by Westwood Squibb until about 2008. Both
are called Lowilla Care.
They are different in smell, texture and chemical formula. The old Lowila from Westwood-Squibb had a fairly hard texture. There was nothing else like it on the market (as far as I know). I used it for decades! Its formula was dextrin, sodium lauryl sulfoacetate, water, boric acid, urea, sorbitol, mineral oil, PEG-14M, lactic acid, dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate, cellulose gum, and fragrance. This new Lowila from Ranbaxy has a waxy/rubbery smell, and a soft waxy texture. Its formula is sodium cocoyl isethionate, stearic acid, maltodextrin, PEG-6, water, boric acid, PEG-4, urea, sodium chloride, mineral oil (or) paraffinum liquidum, and sorbitol. The new one is very fragrant, made my eyes red (from the fumes) and made me sneeze. I would like the original product back, which I bought two cases at a time! How can the new product have the same name?
Susan 19 Sep 2010, 09:25
I used Lowila for 40+ years and was frantic to find a replacement. I find
that Eucerin Gentle Hydrating Cleanser (unfortunately no bar cleanser
available) is a highly satisfactory product that makes my super-sensitive,
highly allergenic skin even more comfortable than Lowila did.
pat 27 Sep 2010, 18:01
i was just wondering if you guys carry the ultravate ointment and if yes
can you tell me were i can get it
AMiller 29 Sep 2010, 11:42
I did receive a bar of the new Lowila soap from Hocks. Unfortunately, it's
nothing like the original which my wife and I had used for decades.
We still have a bar of the old Lowila to compare it against. The old Lowila had a rather neutral smell. The new Lowila is one of the worst smelling soaps we've ever used. The old Lowila, as all know, was very gentle on the skin. The new Lowila leaves my face feeling ultra-dried out and unpleasant. We've tried Eucerin and Cetaphil in the past and thought they were ok, but not as good as the old Lowila. I guess we'll try those again. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

You can still get Ultravate cream in generic form. Only the name brand
Ultravate cream was discontinued. I just picked it up today. Good luck!

I posted a comment previously and have used Lowila for over 30 years. I
have extremely sensitive skin. I haven't tried the new Lowila formula yet
but the comments don't sound too promising. I was able to find a sensitive
skin cleanser that I like almost as much as the "old" Lowila. It is by
Boots (www.boots.com) called Expert Sensitive Gentle Cleansing Wash. I
have only used it over the summer months and so far it has worked
wonderfully, but the real litmus test will be this winter when my skin gets
even more prone to dryness. Target carries it and it is very affordable.
Hope this helps!

I also have used Lowila for over 30 years and I'm extremely disappointed it
is not available. I started using it by my optometrist's advise to remove
eye make-up, as I have sensitive eyes. Although I made an effort not to
have Lowila get in my eyes, it did occassionly and did not sting or
irritate my eyes. Do you know if Eucerin and Expert are safe for eye
make-up removal. I appreciate any feedback.

where can i buy the "old" lowila soap? it was from the squibbs'
manufacturing co. i have been using this product for 25 years, because my
skin is very very sensitive and my dermotologist. what is the name of the
product and with the same ingredients that have replaced the original
lowila soap. where can i purchase such a product? time is of the essence!

Ordered the new Lowila from Hocks and, as others have stated, nothing at
all like the original product. A major disappointment! Have since tried
Neutrogenia bar soap, original formula. This works well if your facial
skin tends to be oily and you need a good cleanser, yet does not irritate
sensitive skin. All of the other gentle cleansers leave my skin too greasy.
Good luck to all. A matter of trial and error to find best fit.

it. Thanks.

I started using Lowila Soap in the 1950's because of all my allergies
including soap. I don't understand why they would discontinue making it
when it is so beneficial to so many people

I am looking for Lac-Hydrin 12% Cream by Westwood Squibb. I was told at the
pharmacy they were unable to order. Please provide me with information to
order. I ;have tried the generic but it does not relieve the symptoms.
Thank you for your time.

PLEASE help me find Lowilla soap. My daughter was allergic to everything
but this soap was the only kind I could use on her. She now has a son who
has the same skin! PLEASE help me!
Molly 25 Mar 2011, 08:57
I don't know anything about soap-making, but I loved Lowila and have not
found anything near its quality. I want to figure out how to make it, not
just for myself, but for everyone on here, because I know EXACTLY how you
feel.
Etta 04 May 2011, 07:03

I bought your PreSun sensitive sunblock SPF 28 with 16% Titanium Dioxide. I
have used titanium sunscreens for years but this is the first one that is
nearly impossible to wash off. Is it intended to be like this ? Of
course, I have never before had one with this high % of titanium. It also
makes me look like a 'mime' performer. I really don't like it. What can I
do.

I, too, bought some of the new Lowila soap. What a HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT!!
It smells nasty. It feels like a bar of Dove soap and it leaves a waxy,
parafin-like residue on my skin (I suppose that's why RanBaxy can claim it
doesn't dry out your skin). This bar is an imposter and is NOTHING like
the old Lowila! Too bad RanBaxy decided to change the formula. The old
Lowila was so beneficial to so many people with skin problems and allergies
(myself included). The new Lowila SUCKS!!!
Brenda Harman 19 Nov 2011, 00:05
Used my last bar of Lowilla and have found nothing satisfactory to replace
it. I had ordered large quantities in the past because it was so hard to
find. If it were more readily available it may have been a better seller.
Any plans to reintroduce the original formula? If so I would like to place
an order.
DP 22 Nov 2011, 23:56
My skin has been a nightmare without Lowila soap. If anyone finds anything
comparable, please let me know. The new Lowila is awful and not even close
to the original.
Marti 07 Dec 2011, 05:00
Just ran out of my last order of Lowila (several hundred bars) only to find
it may have been the last EVER!
Please SOMEONE remake the REAL Lowila! Please ANYONE post if you find substitues as we all are looking for them!
Elke Rathwell 09 Jan 2012, 01:14
Please tell me if Ultravate ointment is still available. I live in the
Ottawa area.
ingrid 21 Jan 2012, 11:25
Hard to understand why this company would change a product like LOWILA that
worked so beautifully & had such a loyal following.
Please bring back the ORIGINAL LOWILA!!!!!
Lissy 24 Jan 2012, 00:02
I am trying to find Lowilla Soap. It has been my favorite for fifty years
and now I have been informed by my pharmacy that it is no longer being
manufactured. I would appreciate your informing me where I can directly
purchase it in Northern California
near San Francisco. Thank you

"New: Lowilla is not up to par with the original. The original kept my skin
clear as it peeled dead layers of skin after each wash. My face skin does
not respond to the "new" formula in that same manner. As a result, I have
had an in-grown hair pimple for over two-months which the orig formula
would have cleared within week(s). I need to try something else. However,
the reformulated bar(s)will not go to waste--I will keep my supply of "new"
Lowilla formula to use as an overall body soap (it seems to work pretty
well as a general cleanser).
Any suggestions for a different facial cleanser would be so helpful.
DP 17 May 2012, 00:18
I have not found any cleanser close to Lowila. If anyone has, please let us
know.
