Medisalic Ointment is a combination medicine which is used in the treatment of eczema and psoriasis. This medicine contains clobetasol and salycilic acid which works by inhibiting the production of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause inflammation and thus reduce swelling, redness, and itching.

About Medisalic Ointment
Medisalic Ointment is a dermatological medication primarily used to treat eczema and psoriasis. Eczema is a skin condition associated with inflamed, itchy, cracked, and rough skin patches. Psoriasis is a skin disease in which skin cells multiply rapidly to form bumpy (uneven) red patches covered with white scales.
Medisalic Ointment contains Clobetasol propionate (corticosteroid) and Salicylic acid (peeling agent). Clobetasol propionate is a corticosteroid that blocks the production of prostaglandins (chemical messengers) that make the affected area red, swollen, and itchy. Salicylic acid is a keratolytic medicine (that softens, separates, and causes peeling of the cornified epithelium or horny layer of skin). It increases the amount of moisture in the skin and dissolves the substance that causes the skin cells to stick together.
Your doctor will advise the appropriate use of Medisalic Ointment that suits your infection. Common side effects of Medisalic Ointment include itching, dryness, and a burning sensation at the application site. These side effects are temporary and gradually resolve over time. If the side effects are persistent, please consult your doctor.
Let your doctor know if you are sensitive to Medisalic Ointment or any other medications. Do not use Medisalic Ointment on open wounds, blisters, and lesions. Please do not cover the affected areas with a dressing or bandage unless advised. Medisalic Ointment is not recommended for use in diaper rash. Let your doctor know if you have liver/kidney diseases, diabetes, Cushing's disease (high cortisol levels), and blood circulation problems before starting Medisalic Ointment. Pregnant and breastfeeding mothers should consult the doctor before starting Medisalic Ointment.
Uses of Medisalic Ointment
Directions for Use
Medisalic Ointment is for topical (for skin use) only. Apply a thin layer with clean and dry hands on the skin's affected areas. You can also apply it with a piece of clean cotton wool or a gauze swab. Gently rub the medicine into the skin. Wash your hands before and after applying Medisalic Ointment unless the treatment is for hands.
Medicinal Benefits
Medisalic Ointment treats skin infections, such as eczema, psoriasis. It consists of Clobetasol propionate and Salicylic acid. Clobetasol propionate is a corticosteroid that blocks the production of prostaglandins (chemical messengers) that make the affected area red, swollen, and itchy. It treats inflammation and itchiness caused by eczema and psoriasis. Salicylic acid is a keratolytic medicine (softens, separates, and causes peeling of the cornified epithelium or horny layer of skin). It increases the amount of moisture in the skin and dissolves the substance that causes the skin cells to stick together. Salicylic acid breaks down the clumps of keratin, removes dead skin cells, and softens the skin. It is also an anti-inflammatory agent and topical antibacterial. Medisalic Ointment removes the scaling and reduces the redness and itchiness due to skin infections.
