How Halotop-S Ointment works:

Halotop-S Ointment combines halobetasol, a corticosteroid, and salicylic acid to effectively manage eczema and psoriasis symptoms. Halobetasol's mechanism involves suppressing inflammatory prostaglandins, thus reducing redness, swelling, and itching. Salicylic acid, a keratolytic agent, dissolves hardened keratin, facilitating the shedding of dead skin cells and improving skin texture. This keratolytic action also boosts the penetration of halobetasol into the affected skin layers.
