SUMMARY PRESENTATION OF THE ACTIVE INGREDIENTS
Salicylic acid is an aromatic carboxylic acid possessing
anti-inflammatory,
analgesic, antimicrobial and keratolytic properties. Anti-inflammatory
and analgesic
action appears to be mediated by the inhibition of prostaglandin
synthesis via the
inhibition of the cylo-oxygenase enzyme.
Sulphur is a non-metallic element, used for
topical dermatologic
therapy,
possessing
antiseptic,
antifungal,
antiparasitic,
anti-acne,
anti-pruritic,
antiseborrhoeic and keratolytic properties. Pharmacological action is
mediated
through the formation of disulphides and polythionic acids formed by
the
interaction of sulphur with organic substances or micro-organisms
present on the
skin.
