The keratolytic duo, salicylic acid and sulphur, offers a potent solution for acne, dandruff, and scalp conditions like seborrheic dermatitis, functioning by boosting skin hydration and dispersing cellular aggregates.

This medication treats various skin conditions, including acne, psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, warts, and scalp issues like itching and flaking. Salicylic acid and sulphur, classified as keratolytic agents, promote skin shedding by increasing moisture and dissolving cellular bonds. This action softens the skin, reduces scaling, and alleviates dryness.
