How Cortent-S Ointment works:

Eczema and psoriasis are effectively managed by Cortent-S Ointment, a dual-action formulation. This ointment combines the corticosteroid Clobetasol, which reduces inflammation by inhibiting the production of inflammatory prostaglandins, and the keratolytic agent Salicylic Acid. Salicylic Acid exfoliates by dissolving keratin build-up, facilitating the removal of dead skin cells and improving skin suppleness. This keratolytic action also promotes the deeper penetration of Clobetasol.
