We learned about Biafine about 10+ years ago when I forgot to spray my legs with Deep Woods Off when it got to be 3pm on Orient beach. The sand fleas had a feast, and the worst part is that the pain does not start until the next day. We drove to the pharmacy in Cul de Sac and the pharmacist gave me Biafine. It worked within minutes of applying it to my legs!

I then remembered that French pharmacists have similar prescribing powers as PAs in the US... something I learned on our honeymoon in Paris back in 1977 when I developed a bad ear infection and the pharmacist gave me sulfa based ear drops that solved the problem fast!.. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Wink.gif" alt="" />
