Salicylic-zinc paste 25 g

Description

Who Salicylic-Zinc Paste Is For

A combination product for external use when you need to dry the skin, reduce exudation (“weeping”), soothe irritation, and support the skin in inflammatory rashes. The paste is well suited for situations where an astringent, adsorbing, and anti-inflammatory effect is needed.

When to Choose Salicylic-Zinc Paste

The paste is chosen for skin conditions with inflammation and/or weeping:

• dermatitis;
• diaper rash;
• pyoderma;
• rosacea;
• acne;
• eczema;
• ulcers with predominant exudation.

What Problem the Product Addresses

Thanks to the combination of salicylic acid (2%) and zinc oxide (25%), the paste works comprehensively:

• Dries and “absorbs” exudate: zinc oxide has adsorbing and astringent properties and reduces weeping.
• Reduces inflammation and irritation: helps decrease local inflammatory signs.
• Antimicrobial support: both components have mild antimicrobial activity.
• Keratoplastic effect: salicylic acid in a low concentration supports normalization of the stratum corneum.
• Less “oiliness/moisture” on the skin: suppresses secretion of the sebaceous and sweat glands.

Directions and Special Considerations for Use

• For adults, apply a thin layer to the affected area 2–3 times a day.
• Approximate course: 6–20 days (depending on the condition).
• Do not apply to mucous membranes.
• Avoid contact with the eyes; if it gets into your eyes, rinse with water.
• It is not recommended to use on areas with heavy weeping, or in cases of excessive skin dryness.

Compatibility and Comprehensive Care

• Do not mix with other topical products on the same area at the same time—combining them may form compounds with an unpredictable effect.
• If you use other topical products in parallel, it is better to agree on a regimen so as not to “layer” preparations.

Why Choose Salicylic-Zinc Paste

• Convenient paste format: dries and reduces weeping where ointments may feel “too greasy”.
• Two-direction combination: salicylic acid + zinc oxide (inflammation + exudation).
• Simple regimen: a thin layer 2–3 times a day.
• Ukrainian manufacturer: PJSC “Viola Pharmaceutical Factory”.

Pharmacological properties.

Pharmacodynamics.

Combined drug for external use. The low concentration of salicylic acid contained in it (2%) has anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and keratoplastic effects. Suppresses the secretion of sebaceous and sweat glands. Zinc oxide has a weak antimicrobial, astringent, adsorbing effect, dries the skin, which leads to a decrease in exudation and helps to reduce local manifestations of inflammation and irritation.

Pharmacokinetics.

When applied externally, salicylic-zinc paste is practically not adsorbed into the systemic circulation and does not exhibit a resorptive effect.

Clinical characteristics.

Indication. Skin diseases: dermatitis, diaper rash, pyoderma, rosacea, acne, eczema, ulcers with a predominance of exudation.

Contraindication. Hypersensitivity to the components of the drug. Acute purulent diseases of the skin and adjacent tissues.

Special security measures. Do not allow the paste to get into your eyes. If the paste accidentally gets into the eyes, they should be thoroughly washed with plenty of running water.

It is not recommended to apply the paste to areas of the skin that are very wet, as well as if it is excessively dry.

It is not recommended to use in acute purulent processes. Do not apply to mucous membranes.

Interactions with other drugs and other types of interactions. When used simultaneously with drugs for external use, new compounds with an unpredictable effect can be created.

Features of application.
