How Halofast S Ointment works:

Halofast S Ointment combines halobetasol, a corticosteroid, and salicylic acid, a keratolytic agent, to effectively manage eczema and psoriasis symptoms. Halobetasol's mechanism involves suppressing inflammatory prostaglandins, thus reducing redness, swelling, and itching. Salicylic acid works by dissolving hardened keratin, facilitating the exfoliation of dead skin cells and improving skin texture. This keratolytic action also promotes the penetration of halobetasol, optimizing its therapeutic effect.
