Silkis Ointment 3mcg (Calcitriol) is a white translucent ointment which contains the active ingredient Calcitriol 3mcg. It is used for the topical treatment of mild to moderately severe plaque psoriasis with up to one third of body surface area involvement. It contains an active ingredient, calcitriol (a vitamin D derivate), which inhibits and normalizes the unrestrained cell growth in psoriasis affected skin.
Silkis Ointment should be kept out of reach and sight of children. It should not be stored above 25 degrees celcius.
Silkis ointment can be applied to the face with caution, as there is an increased risk of irritation in this area. Contact with the eyes should be avoided. The hands should be washed after applying the ointment in order to avoid unintentional application to non leisonal areas. Not more than 35% of the body surface should be exposed to daily treatment. Not more than 30g of ointment should be used per day.
