Lobate S Ointment

Lobate S Ointment is a prescription-based combination medication used to treat eczema and psoriasis. It helps relieve symptoms like redness, itching, swelling, and skin thickening by reducing inflammation and promoting the removal of dead skin cells.

Key Components & Their Roles:

1. Clobetasol (Steroid) – Reduces inflammation, itching, and redness by suppressing immune responses.

2. Salicylic Acid (Keratolytic) – Exfoliates dead skin cells, unclogs pores, and reduces scaling.

3. Lactic Acid & Urea (Moisturizers & Keratolytics) – Help soften and hydrate the skin while aiding in shedding dead skin cells.

Benefits:

✔ Eczema Relief – Reduces dryness, itching, and inflammation.
✔ Psoriasis Management – Controls scaling, redness, and discomfort.

Usage Instructions:

• Apply a thin layer to clean, dry skin as directed (usually 1-2 times daily).

• Do not overuse (risk of skin thinning or side effects).

• Avoid face, groin, or sensitive areas unless prescribed.

Side Effects (Common but Temporary):

• Burning, itching, irritation, or redness at the application site.

Precautions:

⚠ Pregnancy: Use only if prescribed (potential risks).
⚠ Breastfeeding: Likely safe, but consult a doctor.
⚠ Avoid prolonged use to prevent skin thinning or systemic absorption.

Missed Dose?

Apply as soon as remembered, but skip if close to the next dose.
