How Salicure Ointment works

Salicure 17 Ointment is a combination of salicylic acid and urea. Salicylic acid is a keratolytic medication. It reduces oil production in the skin, sloughs away dead skin cells, replenishes the skin, and keeps the pores open. Urea provides hydration to smoothen skin's texture and helps reduce the buildup of dead skin cells.

  • Before you apply Salicure 17 Ointment, wash the area with any medicated facewash and water and gently dry it with a towel.
  • Apply Salicure 17 Ointment to all of the area where your acne is present and not just to each acne.
  • Avoid contact with eyes, nose, and genitals. In case of accidental contact, rinse thoroughly with water.
  • Salicure 17 Ointment may make your skin sensitive to sunlight. Use protective measures, like sunscreen or wear protective clothing.
  • Inform your doctor if you notice unusual dryness, redness, and peeling of the skin.
  • Do not apply to open wounds or irritated skin.
  • Do not use urea in large amounts or for a longer duration than recommended.
