How Halocon S Ointment works:

Halocon S Ointment combines halobetasol, a corticosteroid, and salicylic acid, a keratolytic agent, to effectively manage eczema and psoriasis. The steroid, halobetasol, reduces inflammation by inhibiting the release of inflammatory prostaglandins, thus alleviating redness, swelling, and itching. Meanwhile, salicylic acid facilitates skin cell turnover by dissolving keratin buildup, removing dead skin cells, and softening the skin's surface. This keratolytic action also improves the penetration of halobetasol, maximizing its therapeutic effect.

Should you forget a Halocon S Ointment application, use it as promptly as you remember. However, near the time for your next scheduled application, omit the missed dose and resume your usual dosing regimen. Avoid applying a double dose.
