Mosovira S Ointment 15 gm

Mosovira S Ointment 15 gm belongs to the class of ‘dermatological agents’ primarily used to treat skin diseases such as eczema and psoriasis. Eczema is a condition in which skin becomes red, itchy, and inflamed due to external agents such as soaps, dyes, or other irritants. Psoriasis is an autoimmune (immune system attacks healthy cells) skin disorder in which the skin becomes scaly, swollen, and itchy.

Mosovira S Ointment 15 gm is a combination of two medicines: Mometasone and Salicylic acid. Mometasone belongs to the corticosteroid class and has anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive, and antiproliferative (inhibits cell growth) properties. It blocks the production of prostaglandins (chemical messengers) that cause inflammatory symptoms, such as red, swollen, and itchy rashes. Salicylic acid is a keratolytic medicine that breaks down the clumps of keratin (protein present on the skin), removes dead skin cells, and softens the skin. It enhances the absorption of mometasone. It also acts as an anti-inflammatory and topical antibacterial agent.

You should use this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. Mosovira S Ointment 15 gm may cause common side effects, such as itching, dryness, redness, irritation, and a burning sensation at the application site.
