Lozivate-MF Ointment is a combination of four medicines: Clobetasol, Salicylic Acid, Lactic Acid, and Urea. Clobetasol is a steroid medicine that blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy. Salicylic Acid, Lactic Acid, and Urea are keratolytic medicines that break down keratin clumps, remove dead skin cells, and soften the skin. They also enhance the absorption of Clobetasol into the skin.

Lozivate-MF Ointment is used to treat the redness, swelling, itching, and discomfort of various skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. Apply to the affected areas as a thin film two or three times daily or as advised by your doctor. Don't cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor. After you have applied Lozivate-MF Ointment, remember to wash your hands (unless your hands are the treated area). Use a mild moisturizer regularly to overcome the skin dryness during the course of treatment. Consult your doctor if your skin condition has not improved after 2 weeks of treatment.
