To use Hevobet S Ointment 10gm correctly, please follow these steps:

• Ensure your hands and the affected area are clean and dry before application. You can wash it with soap and water, then pat it dry with a clean towel.
• Apply a thin film of the ointment on your skin using your fingertips or a clean cotton swab. The amount required will depend on the size of the affected area.

Hevobet S Ointment 10gm is applied topically.

Hevobet S Ointment 10gm contains two active ingredients:

• Halobetasol propionate (0.05%): This component is a synthetic corticosteroid with anti-inflammatory properties. It works by suppressing the release of substances in the body that cause inflammation, reducing swelling and redness in the area where it's applied.
• Salicylic acid (3%): This agent encourages shedding skin cells from the outer layer of your skin (stratum corneum) by dissolving the 'cement' that holds these cells together. This action reduces skin thickening and improves the penetration of halobetasol into the skin layers.

Combining these two ingredients enhances efficacy in managing inflammatory and hyperkeratotic (excessive skin thickening) conditions compared to either ingredient used alone.

• Keep Hevobet S Ointment 10gm in a cool place.
• Protect it from freezing temperatures.
• Store it away from direct light and moisture.
• Always keep the ointment out of reach of children.
• Remember to use the ointment within three months of opening the tube.

• If you have psoriasis or other skin conditions managed by Hevobet S Ointment 10gm, include omega-3 fatty acids in your diet. Foods rich in omega-3, like flaxseeds, walnuts, and fatty fish, can help manage inflammation.
• Limit alcohol consumption. Alcohol can trigger psoriasis flare-ups and may reduce the effectiveness of your medicine.
