Anthralin, a synthetic compound, is used to treat psoriasis by slowing down the growth of skin cells and reducing scaling and inflammation. Betamethasone Dipropionate is a potent corticosteroid that reduces itching, redness, and swelling associated with various skin conditions. Salicylic Acid, a keratolytic (peeling agent), causes shedding of the outer layer of skin and is used to treat conditions such as acne, dandruff, psoriasis, and seborrheic dermatitis of the skin and scalp.
The ointment is a semi-solid formulation dispensed in a tube, designed for external application to the skin. The greasy or oily base aids in the delivery of the medication, providing localized treatment. This formulation is typically used for conditions such as skin inflammation, infections, or wound healing. The combination of these three active ingredients allows for a multi-faceted approach to treatment, addressing not only the symptoms but also the underlying causes of these skin conditions.
Patients should apply the ointment to the affected area as directed by their healthcare provider. It is important to use this medication only on the skin. Avoid getting the medication in your eyes, nose, or mouth. If you do get the medication in those areas, flush with plenty of water. Wash your hands after applying, unless you are using this medication to treat the hands. Do not apply this medication to open wounds, burns, or broken or inflamed skin unless directed by your doctor. Do not apply this medication more often, use more of it than as directed, or use it for a longer time than directed. Your condition will not improve faster, but the risk of side effects may be increased.
Prescribers should consider the patient's overall health status, the severity and type of skin condition, and the patient's response to previous treatments when deciding to prescribe this formulation. Regular follow-up is necessary to monitor the patient's response to treatment and to adjust the treatment plan as necessary.

This formulation contains three active ingredients: Anthralin, Betamethasone Dipropionate, and Salicylic Acid. Each of these ingredients has its own potential for drug interactions, which can be increased when used in combination. It's important to inform your healthcare provider about all the medications you're currently taking, including prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications, vitamins, and herbal supplements.
Anthralin: Anthralin is a topical medication used to treat psoriasis. It works by slowing down the growth of skin cells. While Anthralin is not known to interact with many drugs, it can cause skin irritation, especially when used with other topical products. Therefore, it's important to inform your healthcare provider if you're using any other skin products.
Betamethasone Dipropionate: Betamethasone Dipropionate is a potent corticosteroid used to reduce inflammation and relieve itching. It can interact with drugs like ritonavir and itraconazole, which can increase the level of corticosteroids in the body and potentially lead to side effects. Additionally, using other topical medications at the same time as Betamethasone Dipropionate may increase the risk of skin irritation or other side effects.
Salicylic Acid: Salicylic Acid is used to help shed dead skin cells from the top layer and decrease redness and swelling (inflammation). This effect helps to decrease the number of pimples that form and speeds healing. It can interact with other skin products that cause dryness or irritation, including other acne medications, products containing alcohol, or astringents. Using these products together may increase the risk of skin irritation.
This formulation is designed to treat skin conditions such as psoriasis and dermatitis. Anthralin slows down the growth of skin cells, Betamethasone Dipropionate reduces inflammation and itching, and Salicylic Acid helps shed dead skin cells, decreases redness and swelling, and speeds healing. The combination of these three ingredients provides a comprehensive approach to managing these skin conditions.
It's important to use this medication exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Do not use it more often or for longer than recommended. If you have any questions about this medication or its potential interactions, please reach out to us at Bayview Pharmacy. We're here to help.
This formulation combines three active ingredients: Anthralin, Betamethasone Dipropionate, and Salicylic Acid, each with a unique mechanism of action to treat various skin conditions.
Anthralin, also known as dithranol, is a synthetic compound that works by slowing down the growth of skin cells. This is particularly useful in conditions like psoriasis, where skin cells grow too quickly, leading to thick, scaly patches. By slowing down this growth, Anthralin helps to normalize the skin's appearance and reduce symptoms such as itching and scaling.
Betamethasone Dipropionate is a potent corticosteroid that works by suppressing the immune response and reducing inflammation. It achieves this by inhibiting the release of substances in the body that cause inflammation.
Salicylic Acid is a keratolytic (peeling agent). It works by causing the cells of the epidermis (the outermost layer of the skin) to shed more readily, opening up clogged pores and neutralizing bacteria within. It also prevents pores from clogging up again by constricting pore diameter, and allowing room for new cell growth. Because of its effect on skin cells, Salicylic Acid is used to treat skin conditions such as seborrheic dermatitis, acne, psoriasis, corns, callus, and warts.
Together, these three ingredients provide a comprehensive treatment approach. The Anthralin slows down the rapid growth of skin cells, the Betamethasone Dipropionate reduces inflammation and itching, and the Salicylic Acid helps to shed the outer layer of skin.
As a topical ointment, this formulation is designed to be applied directly to the affected area of the skin. The semi-solid base provides a greasy or oily layer that aids in the delivery of the medication, ensuring that it stays in contact with the skin for a prolonged period. This allows for localized treatment, minimizing systemic absorption and potential side effects.
It's important to use this medication as directed by your healthcare provider. Typically, a thin layer of the ointment is applied to the affected area once or twice daily. However, the exact dosage and frequency will depend on the specific condition being treated and the patient's response to therapy.
