ELICASAL OINTMENT (MOMETASONE FUROATE + SALICYLIC ACID) – SYSTEMIC DERMATOLOGICAL ANTI-INFLAMMATORY & KERATOLYTIC THERAPY
Elicasal Ointment is a high-precision, pharmaceutical-grade topical medication engineered for the clinical management of "stubborn," thickened, and inflammatory skin disorders. It works through a sophisticated "dual-action" molecular mechanism: the Mometasone Furoate (0.1%) acts as a systemic potent corticosteroid to suppress the localized production of inflammatory mediators (prostaglandins and leukotrienes), while the Salicylic Acid (5%) acts as a keratolytic to physically "dissolve" the thickened layer of dead skin (keratin). This action effectively allows the steroid to reach deep into the systemic dermal layers to clear redness and scaling in the high-dust Nigerian environment.
In Nigeria, Elicasal is a premier clinical choice for managing "Chronic Plaque Psoriasis," severe "Eczema" with thickened patches (lichenification), and localized "Hyperkeratotic" conditions where standard creams fail to penetrate. It is particularly valued for its Ointment Base, which provides a systemic "occlusive shield" that locks in moisture and increases the potency of the medicine in the dry or humid Nigerian climate. At Sanlive Pharmacy, we ensure our Elicasal stock is stored in strictly climate-controlled, dark environments to maintain the molecular stability of the steroid crystals. This is critical because advanced dermatological ointments are thermosensitive; exposure to the intense Nigerian sun or high-temperature storage in non-pharmacy environments can cause the ointment to "liquefy" or the active molecules to denature, significantly reducing the product's ability to "clear" your skin patches and increasing the risk of localized skin thinning.
Important: This is a potent systemic dermatological therapy.
The "Thin-Film" Rule: You must apply only a very small amount to the localized affected area; because Mometasone is a "Potent" steroid, applying too much over a large area can lead to systemic absorption into your bloodstream.
The "Face-and-Fold" Warning: You must not use Elicasal on your face, underarms, or groin area unless specifically directed by our pharmacist; the skin in these areas is too thin and the Salicylic acid can cause localized "burning" or permanent skin damage.
The "Duration" Note: You should be aware that you must not use this ointment for more than 2 to 4 weeks continuously; long-term systemic use can lead to localized "skin thinning" (atrophy) and stretch marks in the Nigerian healthcare landscape.
Chronic Plaque Psoriasis Clearance: Effectively dissolving "thick scales" and reducing redness.
Hyperkeratotic Dermatitis Resolution: Treating "hardened" skin patches caused by chronic scratching.
Severe Eczema Suppression: Providing rapid systemic relief for intense itching and localized swelling.
Keratolytic Scaling Management: Utilizing Salicylic Acid to "peel" away dead skin cells.
Inflammation and Heat Reduction: "Cooling" the systemic inflammatory response in the skin.
Deep-Penetrating Barrier Support: Ensuring the steroid reaches the systemic roots of the disease.
Targeted Dermatological Reset: Providing a clinical solution for "resistant" skin plaques.
Adults and adolescents suffering from clinically diagnosed thickened, inflammatory skin disorders.
Individuals requiring a proactive, systemic solution for "stubborn" scaling under professional supervision.
Not recommended for: Children under 12 years (unless directed) or for use on broken/infected skin. It is strictly contraindicated for viral skin infections (like chickenpox or herpes) or "Rosacea." Consult our pharmacist if the area is "weeping" or pus-filled. Consult your doctor immediately if you notice sudden localized "skin peeling" that feels like a burn or sudden localized "thinning," as these require professional clinical investigation for systemic skin stability in the Nigerian healthcare landscape.
Administered via the Topical Route, typically applied to the affected area once or twice daily.
The "Administration" Tip: Gently massage a thin layer into the localized plaque; you do not need to "slather" it on for it to be systemically effective.
The "Clean-Start" Rule: Always wash and dry the area before application; Salicylic acid works best when it can touch the "scales" directly without systemic interference from dirt or oil.
Consistency is Vital: To effectively "clear" the plaque, maintain your daily routine; stopping "cold turkey" after long use can cause a systemic "rebound" of the rash.
The "Storage" Tip: Keep the tube tightly capped in a cool, dry place (below 25°C); never leave Elicasal in a hot car, as the Nigerian heat will rapidly destroy the steroid potency and ointment integrity.
Mild Localized Burning: A temporary systemic reaction to the Salicylic Acid as it dissolves the skin.
Localized Skin Itching: Occasionally occurring during the first 3 days of therapy.
Skin Thinning (Atrophy): A common risk if used systemically for too long or in the wrong area.
Rare but serious: Systemic Steroid Absorption—only occurs if used over very large areas for months.
Rare: Occasional localized "acne-like" bumps or change in skin color.
Seek medical advice immediately if the skin condition gets worse or you notice signs of a severe allergic reaction.
Organon (or MS&D) – Ensuring Elicasal meets international gold standards for dermatological efficacy and molecular purity.
100% Authentic: Guaranteed original Elicasal with verified batch numbers and secure NAFDAC registration.
Potency Protection: Our professional dark-storage protocols ensure the anti-inflammatory molecules remain active despite the Nigerian heat.
Professional Guidance: Access to licensed pharmacists for clinical counseling on "Safe Steroid Use and Preventing Skin Thinning."
Reliable Delivery: Fast and secure shipping across Nigeria, ensuring your essential skin support arrives in perfect, factory-sealed condition.
Is it "Stronger" than regular Elocom?
Systemically, the steroid (Mometasone) is the same strength. However, Elicasal is more effective for "thick" skin because the Salicylic Acid "clears the road" so the Elocom can actually reach the infection. For "soft" or "thin" skin, regular Elocom is safer.
Can I use it for "Pimples" on my face?
No. Using a potent steroid like Elicasal on your face can cause "Steroid Acne" and permanent localized thinning of the skin. For systemic acne management, ask our pharmacist for specialized facial products.
Will it "Lighten" my skin?
Steroids can occasionally cause localized "hypopigmentation" (light spots) as a side effect. This is not a "toning" cream; using it for systemic skin lightening is dangerous and can damage your skin's systemic health in the Nigerian sun.
