Description
Elicasal Ointment contains mometasone furoate and salicylic acid, making it effective for treating inflammatory skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis. Mometasone furoate is a potent corticosteroid that reduces inflammation, itching, and redness, while salicylic acid helps to remove dead skin cells and enhance the absorption of mometasone.
Dosage/Direction: Apply a thin layer of Elicasal Ointment to the affected area once or twice daily, as directed by your doctor. Gently rub it in until fully absorbed. Avoid using it on the face, groin, or underarms unless advised by your doctor. Do not cover the treated area with bandages or other dressings unless instructed.
Side Effects: Common side effects include burning, itching, or stinging at the application site. Prolonged use may lead to skin thinning, stretch marks, or systemic effects due to corticosteroid absorption. Rarely, severe allergic reactions such as rash, itching/swelling, severe dizziness, or trouble breathing may occur. Discontinue use and seek immediate medical attention if you experience any severe reactions.
