Calcipelle Ointment is used for calcipelle Ointment is used in the treatment of psoriasis.
Medically reviewed by Dr. Balaji Krishnan, MBBS · Updated September 2026
Calcipelle Ointment contains Calcipotriol (0.005%w/w). It belongs to the Skin preparation class of medicines.
Calcipelle Ointment is used in the treatment of psoriasis.
Calcipelle Ointment is a synthetic form of vitamin D belonging to the class of medicines called âanti-psoriaticsâ. It lowers the rate with which skin cells grow, thereby controlling the psoriatic condition.
Clean and dry the affected area, then apply a thin layer and rub it in gently. Wash your hands before and after use, unless your hands are the area being treated. This is for use on the skin only — do not swallow it. Follow the dose and the duration written on your prescription.
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
Apply it as soon as you remember. If it is nearly time for the next application, skip the missed one — applying extra does not make up for it.
An overdose of this medicine is unlikely from skin use; swallowing the preparation may cause stomach upset. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
Most side effects of Calcipelle are mild and settle as the body adjusts. Reported side effects include:
Stop the medicine and seek help immediately for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
