HOW STERNON S LOTION WORKS

STERNON
S LOTION is a combination of Betamethasone and Salicylic acid.
Betamethasone works by blocking the production of certain inflammatory
mediators called prostaglandins in the body and thus reduces the redness
and swelling. It has anti-inflammatory proteins which are responsible
for removing the scaly layers of the skin and reduces the redness and
itchiness caused by the various skin problems. Salicylic acid manages
the skin lesions by peeling the outer layer of the skin and helps to
re-establish the normal skin by removing the dead skin. It also promotes
the fast absorption of betamethasone into the skin.
