Overview Calpsor Ointment

DermaCalm ointment is a topical treatment for mild to moderate psoriasis, slowing skin cell growth to reduce scaly, red patches. Apply only to clean, dry skin, exactly as prescribed. Always wash hands before and after use. Consistent application is key for optimal results; avoid overuse, as this won't speed healing and may increase side effects. Consult your physician if symptoms persist beyond four weeks or worsen. Maintaining skin cleanliness aids treatment effectiveness. Common, typically temporary, side effects include dryness, irritation, itching, burning, stinging, redness, and rash at the application site. Persistent side effects warrant medical attention. Avoid eye contact; rinse with water and seek immediate medical help if contact occurs. Inform your doctor about pregnancy, breastfeeding, or plans for pregnancy, and any kidney or liver conditions before use, to ensure appropriate dosage. Facial application is not recommended due to potential irritation. Limit sun and UV exposure while using this medication.

FAQs on Calpsor Ointment

Calpsor Ointment is not a steroid, but a synthetic vitamin D3 derivative. Vitamin D regulates skin cell growth. Psoriasis involves excessive, un-shed skin cell growth, causing raised, red, scaly patches. Calpsor Ointment reduces this excessive skin cell production.
Calpsor Ointment may begin to improve symptoms within two weeks, though individual results vary. Significant improvement is often seen after eight weeks, but complete symptom resolution is uncommon. Consult your doctor if you have any concerns.
Calpsor Ointment shouldn't be applied to the face due to potential irritation, and avoid contact with the eyes. Use caution in skin folds like armpits or under the breasts, as these areas are more susceptible to irritation.
Follow your doctor's instructions precisely when using Calpsor Ointment. Wash your hands before and after application. Apply only to skin affected by psoriasis (red, scaly patches). Gently rub a generous amount into the affected area until absorbed. You may apply directly to the skin or onto your finger first. Always wash your hands afterward.
Calpsor Ointment is contraindicated in patients with allergies to its components, pregnant or breastfeeding women, individuals with severe hepatic or renal impairment, and those with abnormal calcium levels. It should not be used in children under 6 years old.
