Amwisal Ointment 30 gm

Amwisal Ointment is a 30 gram topical medication designed to manage various skin conditions, like eczema and psoriasis. Its formulation includes a combination of clobetasol propionate and salicylic acid. These components work together to combat skin conditions.

For instance, clobetasol propionate has anti-inflammatory abilities that tackle redness, swelling, and itching caused by these skin conditions. On the other hand, Amwisal ointment's salicylic acid has keratolytic properties that soften and strip away the outer layer of the skin. This feature allows other medications to infiltrate deeper into the skin.

As a topical medication, Amwisal ointment is directly applied to the skin, making it a safe and effective option for treating various skin conditions due to its low concentration of clobetasol propionate.

AMWISAL 30GM 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). 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.

AMWISAL 30GM 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) which breaks down the clumps of keratin, removes dead skin cells, and helps in softening of the skin. It also helps in the absorption of Clobetasol into the skin.
