How Zincort-S Ointment works

Zincort-S Ointment is a combination of three medicines: Clobetasol, Zinc and Salicylic Acid which treat eczema and psoriasis. Clobetasol is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen and itchy. Zinc is a nutritional supplment which speeds up the healing of skin lesions. Salicylic Acid is a keratolytic medicine. It breaks down keratin clumps, removes dead skin cells and softens the skin. It also enhances the absorption of Clobetasol into the skin.

Quick tips

Zincort-S Ointment is used to treat the redness, swelling, itching, and discomfort of various skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis.
Apply to the affected areas as a thin film two or three times daily, or as advised by your doctor.
Don't cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor, as this may increase the risk of side effects.
After you have applied Zincort-S Ointment, remember to wash your hands (unless your hands are the treated area).
Use a mild moisturizer regularly to overcome the skin dryness during the course of treatment.
Consult your doctor if your skin condition has not improved after 2 weeks of treatment.
