FMH-Coalsal Ointment is a combination of two medicines: Clobetasol and Salicylic Acid. Clobetasol is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy. Salicylic Acid is a keratolytic medicine which breaks down keratin clumps, removes dead skin cells, and softens the skin. It also enhances the absorption of Clobetasol into the skin.
How do I use FMH-Coalsal Ointment effectively?
Apply a thin layer of FMH-Coalsal Ointment to the affected skin areas as directed by your doctor or the product instructions. Typically, it is applied two to three times a day. Be sure to wash your hands after application unless treating hand infections.
Should I stop using FMH-Coalsal Ointment when my symptoms improve?
No, complete the full course of treatment as prescribed, even if you feel better. Symptoms may subside before the condition is fully treated.
What precautions should I take while using FMH-Coalsal Ointment?
Avoid applying FMH-Coalsal Ointment to your face and do not use it for longer than recommended. Do not apply a bandage or dressing to the treated area, as this may increase absorption and risk of side effects. Use the medicine only by the intended patient.
Will using more FMH-Coalsal Ointment than prescribed make it more effective?
No, overusing FMH-Coalsal Ointment can lead to excessive skin absorption and potentially serious side effects. If symptoms worsen, consult your doctor for re-evaluation.
