About Topisal-MF 3% Ointment
Topisal-MF 3% Ointment is a combination medicine used to treat psoriasis and eczema. Psoriasis is an autoimmune disorder in which skin cells multiply faster than usual, leading to a build-up of skin into bumpy (uneven) red patches covered with white scales. Eczema is generally known as skin inflammation which causes patches of itchy, inflamed, swollen, and cracked skin.
Topisal-MF 3% Ointment contains Clobetasol, Lactic acid, Salicylic acid, Sodium lactate, and Urea. Clobetasol works by inhibiting the release of chemical messengers that cause inflammation and redness. Salicylic Acid and urea help soften the skin by removing the dead skin cells and breaking down the keratin lumps. Lactic acid and sodium lactate prevent the skin from becoming dry and flaky by replenishing the moisture. Together, Topisal-MF 3% Ointment helps in treating psoriasis and eczema.
