CLOBETASOL PROPIONATE+LACTIC ACID

About

CLOBETASOL PROPIONATE+LACTIC ACID is a combination medication used to reduce swelling, itching, redness, and dead skin cells caused due to certain skin problems such as psoriasis and eczema. Eczema is a skin condition that causes itchy, cracked, swollen, or rough skin. Psoriasis is a skin condition in which skin cells multiply faster than normal, resulting in white scales and itchy, dry patches.

CLOBETASOL PROPIONATE+LACTIC ACID contains Clobetasol propionate (corticosteroid) and Lactic acid (keratolytic agent). Clobetasol propionate inhibits the release of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause redness, itching, and swelling. Lactic acid works by breaking down a protein known as keratin (that forms part of skin structure) and removes dead skin cells, and softens skin. Also, it enhances Clobetasol propionate absorption into the skin.

CLOBETASOL PROPIONATE+LACTIC ACID is for external use only. Use CLOBETASOL PROPIONATE+LACTIC ACID as advised by a doctor. Some people may experience dry skin, rash, or redness of the skin.
