Zinc oxide ointment and zinc oxide paste both contain zinc oxide as the active ingredient, but they differ in consistency and composition. Ointments are typically oil-based and have a smoother, greasier texture, making them easier to spread over larger areas. In contrast, pastes contain a higher concentration of solids, resulting in a thicker, more adhesive texture, which makes them better suited for creating a protective barrier on the skin.
