Psoriasis is categorized as an autoimmune skin condition in which your immune system becomes overactive, increasing the speed at which your skin cells grow, causing the formation of red, itchy, scaly, and painful patches. Generic Halobetasol + Salicylic Acid ointment 10gm tube is an anti-psoriatic medication used to manage these fast-growing cells and reduce inflammation, redness, and itching of infected patches by regulating calcium and phosphate levels. This ointment is formulated with Calcitriol as the active ingredient that binds to vitamin D receptors in intestinal cells and increases the transport of calcium from food to the bloodstream. After binding with these receptors, it modifies the functioning of genes involved in cell growth. It manages rapid cell division and slows down the growth of keratinocytes, promoting them to differentiate properly and restoring the skin structure. It also reduces inflammation by suppressing pro-inflammatory signals, boosting anti-inflammatory response, and preventing the immune system from attacking cells.

• Headache
