- Topiclo S Ointment comprises clobetasol and salicylic acid. Clobetasol is a steroid that works by blocking the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that are responsible for making the skin red, swollen, and itchy.
- Salicylic Acid is a keratolytic medicine (that softens, separates, and causes desquamation (peeling) of the cornified epithelium or horny layer of skin) it breaks down the clumps of keratin, removes dead skin cells, and helps in softening the skin.
- Topiclo S Ointment also helps in the absorption of Clobetasol into the skin.
- Psoriasis is a skin disorder in which skin cells multiply up to 10 times faster than normal which leads to the build-up of skin into bumpy (uneven) red patches covered with white scales.
- These can grow anywhere, but most commonly they appear on the scalp, elbows, knees, and lower back.
- Topiclo S Ointment is a combination of two medicines that are primarily used to treat eczema and psoriasis.
- Eczema is a condition in which skin patches become inflamed, itchy, cracked, and rough.
- Some types of eczema can also lead to blisters (a small bubble on the skin that is filled with serum and is caused by friction, burning, or other damage).
This treatment is shown for the alleviation of the fiery appearances of hyperkeratotic and dry corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses such as psoriasis, constant atopic dermatitis, neurodermatitis (lichen Simplex, Chronicus), lichen planus, dermatitis (counting nummular dermatitis, hand dermatitis, eczematous dermatitis), seborrheic dermatitis of the scalp, ichthyosis vulgaris and other ichthyotic conditions.
