About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Halostrol S 6% Ointment
Halostrol S 6% ointment is a potent, prescription-strength treatment for chronic plaque psoriasis. This unique formulation combines the effectiveness of Halobetasol (0.05%), a highly selective corticosteroid known for its rapid and effective action on inflammatory cells, with the exfoliating properties of salicylic acid (6%).
The combination allows for rapid relief from symptoms like itching, burning, dryness, and redness. The salicylic acid provides targeted treatment by softening and removing dead skin, promoting healthy cell turnover.
Halostrol S 6% ointment is typically used on affected areas of the body, such as elbows, knees, scalp, or lower legs. It is crucial to follow your healthcare provider's instructions carefully for proper application and duration of treatment. This medicine should not be used for longer than prescribed.
Always consult with your doctor or pharmacist before using any new medication.
