🩺 Clinical
Lipid Shield SPF 30 is a topical cream containing zinc oxide as its active ingredient. Zinc oxide is a mineral sunscreen component commonly used in sun protection products to help reflect and scatter ultraviolet (UV) rays away from the skin. This is an over-the-counter monograph drug, meaning it is marketed under FDA's established rules for sunscreen products rather than through individual product approval. The cream form is applied directly to the skin.
