How KERALIN OINTMENT Works
KERALIN OINTMENT is a combination of Hydrocortisone, Benzoic acid and Salicylic acid whereas Hydrocortisone is a glucocorticoid that inhibits the synthesis of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that cause inflammatory signs like redness, swelling, and itching. Benzoic acid helps to manage infection caused by bacteria. Salicylic acid reduces the swelling and redness caused by the infection and acts as an antibacterial agent.
