How Viclob SF Ointment works:

Viclob SF Ointment combines clobetasol propionate and salicylic acid to effectively manage eczema and psoriasis symptoms. Clobetasol, a corticosteroid, reduces inflammation by suppressing the release of prostaglandins—substances that trigger redness, swelling, and itching. Salicylic acid, a keratolytic agent, dissolves hardened skin layers, facilitating the removal of dead cells and improving skin texture. This action also promotes the deeper penetration of clobetasol into the affected skin area.
