Overview
Salicylic ointment is a topical keratolytic preparation containing salicylic acid as its active pharmaceutical ingredient. It is primarily indicated for the treatment of hyperkeratotic skin conditions, including warts, calluses, corns, and chronic plaque psoriasis. The mechanism of action involves the dissolution of the intercellular cement in the stratum corneum, which promotes the shedding of epidermal cells and softens the skin. Additionally, salicylic acid exhibits mild anti-inflammatory and antiseptic properties. Viola Pharm, a pharmaceutical manufacturer based in Ukraine, produces this formulation as a generic over-the-counter (OTC) product.
