Medisalic Ointment 20gm

Medisalic Ointment 20gm contains Clobetasol and Salicylic Acid which act as a dynamic duo for maintaining healthy and happy skin. Clobetasol serves as a shield against redness and itching in the skin by inhibiting the production of trouble-causing messengers called prostaglandins. Complementing this action, Salicylic Acid plays the role of a helper by clearing away dead skin, making it easier for Clobetasol to be absorbed where it's needed. Together, they form a superhero team, with Clobetasol addressing skin issues and Salicylic Acid ensuring it reaches its target effectively.

Begin by cleaning and drying the affected area as directed on the label before applying the medicine after applying, remember to wash your hands, unless your hands are the affected area to the prescribed dose and duration for the best results.

Common side effects may include skin thinning or atrophy, especially in areas with thinner skin, such as the face, and intertriginous areas (areas where skin contacts skin, like the armpits and groin). It's important to limit the duration of use and avoid excessive application to prevent these side effects.

Prolonged use of Clobetasol can lead to skin thinning or atrophy, so it's crucial to follow the recommended application instructions.

Salicylic acid can enhance the absorption of corticosteroids through the skin, increasing the risk of systemic side effects, particularly if used on large areas of the body or under occlusive dressings. Always follow the recommended application instructions to minimize this risk.

If you happen to miss an application, apply it as soon as you remember. However, if your next dose is approaching, it's best to skip the missed one and continue with your regular schedule Avoid using two doses at once.
