About Cooltar Solution 100 ml
Cooltar Solution 100 ml is used to treat skin conditions such as psoriasis and dandruff and to control seborrheic dermatitis (scaly patches and red skin on the scalp). Psoriasis occurs when skin cells multiply up to 10 times faster than usual, leading to skin buildup into bumpy (uneven) red patches covered with white scales.
Cooltar Solution 100 ml is composed of Salicylic acid and Coal Tar. Salicylic acid increases skin moisture and dissolves the substance that causes skin cells to stick together. Coal tar removes dead cells from the skin’s top layer and slows the growth of skin cells.
Cooltar Solution 100 ml has common side effects, including warmth, a burning sensation, skin irritation, itching, and redness at the application site. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and usually resolve on their own over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, please consult your doctor.
Cooltar Solution 100 ml is for topical use only (for skin application). Let your doctor know if you have any allergic reactions to Cooltar Solution 100 ml or other medications. Do not apply a dressing or bandage to the affected area unless instructed to do so by a doctor. Pregnant and breastfeeding mothers should consult the doctor before starting Cooltar Solution 100 ml.
