How it works
Tripletop Lotion is a combination of three medicines: Clobetasol, Salicylic Acid, and Coal Tar which treat psoriasis. Clobetasol is a steroid medicine that blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy. Salicylic Acid and Coal Tar are keratolytic medicines that break down keratin clumps, remove dead skin cells, and soften the skin.
Quick Tips
Tripletop Lotion is used to treat the redness, swelling, itching, and discomfort associated with psoriasis. It may take several weeks to show its action. Keep using it as suggested by your doctor. Wash your skin with a mild cleanser and pat it dry before applying Tripletop Lotion. Apply it as a thin layer onto a clean, dry, unbroken infected area of skin. Avoid contact with your eyes, nose, or mouth. Rinse it off with water if you accidentally get the cream in these areas. Use a mild moisturizer regularly to overcome the skin dryness during the course of treatment.
