Halostrol Ointment 30G belongs to a class of drugs called 'topical corticosteroids' primarily used to reduce plaque psoriasis symptoms like plaque build-up, scaling, redness and dryness in 2 weeks for patients more than 12 years of age. The skin's swelling occurs when an allergic reaction or skin irritation releases several substances in the skin that widens blood vessels and cause itching, redness, pain, and swelling in the irritated area.
