How Clopex-S Ointment works:

Clopex-S Ointment combines the actions of Clobetasol and Salicylic Acid to effectively manage eczema and psoriasis symptoms. Clobetasol, a corticosteroid, reduces inflammation by suppressing the release of inflammatory mediators like prostaglandins, thus alleviating redness, swelling, and itching. Salicylic acid, a keratolytic agent, dissolves hardened skin cells, facilitating their removal and improving skin texture. This keratolytic action further improves the penetration of Clobetasol into the affected skin.
