About Sorvate C Ointment

Sorvate C Ointment is used to treat psoriasis. Psoriasis is a skin disorder in which skin cells multiply and form bumpy (uneven) red patches covered with white scales. These red patches can commonly appear on the scalp, elbows, knees, and lower back.

Sorvate C Ointment contains Clobetasol propionate (corticosteroid) and Calcitriol (Vitamin D3). Clobetasol propionate blocks the production of prostaglandins (chemical messengers), which make the skin red, swollen and itchy. Calcitriol is a man-made form of Vitamin D that inhibits the excess production of skin cells, which leads to the formation of scales and patches of the skin in psoriasis. Together, Sorvate C Ointment helps treat psoriasis.

Sorvate C Ointment is for external use only. Your doctor will advise the dose and duration based on your medical condition. Common side-effects of Sorvate C Ointment are burning/stinging sensation, itching, redness, dryness and irritation at the site of application. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. If these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.

Avoid contact with Sorvate C Ointment in your eyes, nose, or mouth. Rinse it off with water thoroughly if contact occurs. Do not use Sorvate C Ointment to treat acne, rosacea (facial flushing on and around the nose), and perioral dermatitis (red or scaly rashes around the mouth). Pregnant and breastfeeding women should use Sorvate C Ointment only with proper consultation and caution. Sorvate C Ointment is not recommended for children less than 12 years of age.
