Diprosalic Oint 30 gm

Description

Diprosalic ointment contains betamethasone dipropionate and salicylic acid. Betamethasone dipropionate is one of a group of medicines called topical corticosteroids. They are classified as 'potent corticosteroids'. These medicines are applied to the surface of the skin to reduce redness and itching caused by certain skin problems. Salicylic acid thins the top layer of the skin's surface, which is caused by the skin problem. This allows betamethasone dipropionate to reach the damaged skin underneath to help it heal. In adults and children, Diprosalic ointment is used to treat skin conditions where the outer surface of the skin is covered with layers of scales. The ointment removes this layer and relieves the redness and itching caused by skin problems.
