Information about Calpsor Ointment

Calpsor Ointment is a topical medicine used to treat mild to moderate psoriasis. It works by slowing the growth of skin cells. This decreases the appearance of red, scaly spots on the skin.

Calpsor Ointment is only for external usage. You should always follow your doctor’s instructions. Before applying, the affected region should be clean and dry. You must thoroughly wash your hands before and after using this medication. To get the most out of this treatment, it should be used on a daily basis. If you use more than you need, your condition will not improve faster, and some adverse effects may worsen. Inform your doctor if your problem persists for more than four weeks or worsens at any time. Keep the afflicted regions clean to help this drug operate better.

Dry skin, skin irritation, itching, burning sensation, stinging sensation, redness of skin, and rash at the site of application are all common adverse effects. The majority of these are transitory and usually go away with time. Please contact your doctor if these side effects persist for an extended period of time. Avoid getting the cream or ointment in your eyes. In the event of direct contact, immediately flush your eyes with water and seek medical treatment.

If you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or breastfeeding, you should inform your doctor before using this medication. If you have renal or liver illness, inform your doctor so that he or she can prescribe an appropriate amount for you. Calpsor Ointment should not be used on the face since it may irritate the skin.

FAQs

Q1. Does Calpsor Ointment include steroids?

Calpsor Ointment, on the other hand, is not a steroid. It is a man-made version of vitamin D3. Vitamin D is responsible for skin cell development. Psoriasis is characterized by excessive development of skin cells that do not shed and appear as scaly areas. As a result, your skin develops elevated red and silver scaly patches. Calpsor Ointment works by lowering the number of cells produced by your skin.

Q2. How long does Calpsor Ointment take to work?

Calpsor Ointment may begin to show relief after about 2 weeks of treatment, but this varies from person to person. After around 8 weeks of treatment, you may see a significant reduction in signs and symptoms, but only a small percentage of patients obtain complete clearance. If you are unsure, consult your doctor.

Q3. Can Calpsor Ointment be applied to the face?

No, Calpsor Ointment should not be used on the face because it may irritate the skin. There is also the possibility of it getting into the eyes. You should also exercise caution when applying it to skin folds such as the armpits or under the breasts. This is due to the increased likelihood of cutaneous adverse effects in certain areas.
