What is paw paw ointment?
What the product is, why it is called both paw paw and papaya, and what form it comes in.
Paw paw and papaya are the same fruit
In Australia the fruit is usually called paw paw; almost everywhere else it is papaya. Products are labelled both ways, sometimes on the same carton — P'URE Papayacare's own naming uses both. There is no difference in the ingredient.
What an ointment is
An ointment is the thickest of the topical forms. It is greasy by design, sits on the surface rather than absorbing quickly, and is used sparingly on small areas. That is why it comes in a 25g size rather than a 250ml bottle.
What is in it
The P'URE Papayacare Papaya Ointment Multi-Use is described by the supplier as paw paw with calendula. For the complete ingredient list, read the carton — that is the authoritative source and we would rather point you to it than paraphrase it.
