How Betsalic Ointment works:

Eczema and psoriasis sufferers may find relief with Betsalic Ointment, a dual-action topical treatment. This formulation combines the corticosteroid Betamethasone, which reduces inflammation by inhibiting prostaglandin production—substances responsible for redness, swelling, and itching—and the keratolytic Salicylic Acid. Salicylic Acid aids in exfoliation by dissolving keratin build-up, removing dead skin cells, and softening the skin, thus facilitating Betamethasone's deeper penetration.
