Zincoderm-S

Clobetasol (0.05% w/w) + Zinc (2.5% w/w) + Salicylic Acid (3% w/w)

Used for relief in mild skin infections/irritation and inflammatory skin conditions where drying, protective and mild keratolytic action is needed, such as diaper rash, prickly heat, minor rashes, eczema with oozing, superficial fungal/bacterial skin irritation (adjunct) and scaling lesions.

Zinc oxide forms a protective barrier on the skin and has mild astringent and antiseptic action, helping reduce irritation and moisture-related rash. Salicylic acid is a keratolytic that softens and loosens the outer layer of skin, reducing scaling and helping other ingredients act better.

For external use only. Clean and dry the affected area, then apply a thin layer 1–2 times daily or as directed by a doctor. Avoid contact with eyes, mouth and mucosa; wash hands after use unless hands are the treated area.

Mild burning/stinging, dryness, peeling, redness, itching, irritation

Do not apply on broken skin, deep wounds, large areas, or under occlusive dressings unless advised by a doctor. Stop use and seek medical advice if severe irritation, swelling, blistering, or worsening occurs. Avoid use in children/infants except on medical advice (especially on large areas/diaper area). Use cautiously in people allergic to salicylates; excessive use may increase salicylate absorption. Not for eyes or mucosal surfaces.

Other topical keratolytics/exfoliants (benzoyl peroxide, retinoids, glycolic acid), topical irritants (alcohol-based products), anticoagulants/salicylates if significant absorption occurs (rare with small-area use)

Store at room temperature (below 25°C), tightly closed. Protect from heat, moisture and direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.
