Kersol C Lotion 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 should Kersol C Lotion be used?
Apply Kersol C Lotion thinly to the affected areas of skin. The recommended application frequency is two or three times a day. It's essential to wash your hands after applying Kersol C Lotion, except if it's specifically for treating skin infections on the hands.
When should I stop using Kersol C Lotion?
Do not discontinue using Kersol C Lotion until advised by your doctor. Even when you experience symptom relief, continue the prescribed treatment course to ensure complete disease resolution. There's a possibility that symptoms will improve before complete cure.
Are there any precautions associated with using Kersol C Lotion?
Kersol C Lotion is not recommended for use on the face. Additionally, avoid prolonged application beyond the advised time limit and refrain from covering the treated area with a bandage or dressing as this can increase absorption and potentially lead to side effects. This medicine should be used solely by the patient and never shared with others, even if they display similar symptoms.
Will using more than the prescribed dose of Kersol C Lotion provide better results?
Using more than the recommended dosage of Kersol C Lotion will not improve its efficacy. Overdosing may lead to excessive medicine absorption, potentially causing skin thinning and other adverse effects. In case your symptoms worsen, seek immediate medical guidance for a re-evaluation.
