Mode of Action
How Does It Work?
Halobetasol belongs to the class of topical corticosteroids. It has anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive and anti-mitogenic properties. Ultravex S3 Ointment contains Salicylic Acid (3%) and Halobetasol/Ulobetasol (0.05%) as their active ingredients.
Salicylic acid belongs to the keratolytic class of medications. Topical salicylic acid helps manage psoriasis by softening and loosening dry, scaly, or thickened skin so that it falls off or can be removed easily. It blocks the production of prostaglandins (chemical messengers) responsible for causing skin to become red, swollen, and itchy. It inhibits late-phase allergic reactions by inhibiting the metabolism of arachidonic acid and blocks the production of prostaglandins....
