How Asteclo-S Ointment works:

Asteclo-S Ointment combines Clobetasol propionate and salicylic acid to effectively manage eczema and psoriasis symptoms. The corticosteroid, Clobetasol, reduces inflammation by inhibiting the release of inflammatory mediators like prostaglandins, thus alleviating redness, swelling, and itching. Salicylic acid, a keratolytic agent, facilitates desquamation by dissolving hardened keratin, clearing away dead skin cells, and improving skin texture. This keratolytic action also promotes the penetration of Clobetasol, optimizing its therapeutic effect.
