KERALIN OINTMENT is a combination of Hydrocortisone, Benzoic acid and Salicylic acid which belongs to the group of medicines called Corticosteroids, Antimicrobials and Keratolytic agents respectively. It is used for hyperkeratotic (thickening of the skin's outer layer) skin lesions like ringworm, chronic dry eczema, cracked heels, warts, and corns, lichenification (thickened, hardened areas of skin), and psoriasis.

During the management, your doctor might regularly examine your skin to avoid any untoward side effects.
