About Salytar Ws Ointment

Salytar Ws Ointment is used to treat skin conditions like psoriasis. It may also be used for neurodermatitis, hyperkeratotic skin conditions, cracked heels and keratoderma. Psoriasis is a skin disorder in which skin cells multiply up to 10 times faster than usual, leading to skin build-up into bumpy (uneven) red patches covered with white scales.

Salytar Ws Ointment is composed of two medicines: Salicylic acid (peeling agent) and Coal Tar (keratoplastic). Salicylic acid helps shed dead skin cells by reducing redness and swelling (inflammation). Coal tar causes the skin to shed dead cells from its top layer and slows down the growth of skin cells.

Salytar Ws Ointment is for topical use only (for skin application). Salytar Ws Ointment may cause common side effects such as a burning sensation, skin irritation, itching, and redness at the application site. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and typically resolve on their own over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, please consult your doctor.

Let your doctor know if you are allergic to any of the components in Salytar Ws Ointment or other medications. Pregnant and breastfeeding mothers should consult the doctor before starting Salytar Ws Ointment. Avoid contact with the eyes, mouth, or mucous membranes; rinse with water if contact occurs. Avoid applying Salytar Ws Ointment to broken or infected skin.
