About After Bite
The original after-bite pen: a pocket-sized dab-on that soothes and cares for skin after insect bites and stings — mosquitoes, horse flies, wasps, bees, nettles, even jellyfish. Clip it into a bag, glovebox or first-aid kit and summer itching meets its match. 14ml handy pen.
Why dab, not scratch
Applied promptly, the classic ammonia-based formula calms the itch so bites get left alone to settle. That matters: scratched bites stay inflamed longer and are the ones that end up infected. One pen sees a family through walks, barbecues and a fortnight abroad.
How to use
Dab onto the bite or sting as soon as possible and rub in gently; repeat if the itch returns. External use on unbroken skin only — avoid eyes and mouth, and wash hands after use.
Good to know
For wasp or bee stings, flick out the sting first. Any sign of serious allergy — spreading swelling, breathing difficulty, dizziness — is a 999 call, not a dab-on. Bites that blister badly or look infected deserve a pharmacist's opinion.

Frequently asked questions
How do I use it?
Dab onto the bite or sting as soon as possible after it happens and rub in gently. Reapply if the itching comes back.
Does it work on wasp and bee stings?
Yes — remove the sting first if one is left behind, then apply. It also covers nettle rash and jellyfish stings.
When is a bite or sting an emergency?
Swelling that spreads quickly, difficulty breathing, or dizziness after a sting are signs of serious allergy — call 999 immediately.
