How Clopinate S Ointment works:

Clobetasol and Salicylic Acid, the active components of Clopinate S Ointment, provide effective relief from eczema and psoriasis. The steroid Clobetasol reduces inflammation by inhibiting the release of inflammatory mediators like prostaglandins, thus lessening redness, swelling, and itching. Meanwhile, the keratolytic agent Salicylic Acid facilitates skin cell turnover by dissolving keratin buildup and shedding dead skin cells, resulting in softer, healthier skin. This action also improves the penetration of Clobetasol into the affected area.
