Salicure 12% Ointment

Description

Salicure ointment is a unique combination of Salicylic Acid and Urea. Urea is a nitrogen material that can moisturises chapped and dry skin. It loosens dead skin and therefore improves skin’s ability to form newer and healthier skin. Salicylic acid relieves itching, redness, controls flaking and scaling and loosens existing scales. The 12 percent Salicylic Acid ointment is particularly used to treat corn, calluses, and cracked heels. It is infused with a distinctive property of exfoliating and promotes the shedding of dead cells, which provides the skin with soft and supple texture. Salicure ointment also boasts of its anti- inflammatory property and gives emollient effect to skin.

Disease Overview

Directions of use

This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Clean and dry the affected area and gently massage the ointment.

Benefits

Salicure contains Salicylic acid and urea. It functions as a peel agent and helps to rid the skin of dead skin cells. Salicylic acid helps in treating hyperkeratotic skin conditions such as psoriasis, corns, callus and warts.
Salicylic acid causes the skin to shed dead cells from its top layer and urea helps in increasing the amount of moisture in the skin and dissolving the “cement” between the cells. This makes it easier to shed the skin cells, softens the top layer of skin, and decreases scaling and dryness.
Salicylic acid + Urea combination aids in the removal of corns and callus can have a calming, anti-inflammatory effect
