Bayview Pharmacy's Salicylic Acid 6%/Coal Tar Topical Solution 5%/Clobetasol Propionate 0.05% Topical Gel is a specially compounded medication designed to treat a variety of skin conditions. This unique formulation combines the therapeutic benefits of three active ingredients, each playing a crucial role in managing skin diseases.

Salicylic Acid, a keratolytic agent, works by reducing inflammation and promoting the exfoliation of the skin. Coal Tar, known for its antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties, aids in reducing itching and scaling. Clobetasol Propionate, a potent topical corticosteroid, further helps to alleviate inflammation and itching.

This compounded formulation is indicated for the treatment of psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, and other inflammatory skin conditions. It is a semisolid formulation dispensed through a pump mechanism, facilitating easy and precise application on the skin for targeted treatment or absorption of active ingredients in a gel-like consistency. It can be applied topically to the affected area up to twice daily.

Patients should be aware that this medication may cause skin irritation and should be used with caution. It is also important to note that this is a compounded medication, and as such, prescribers should monitor patients for any adverse reactions and adjust the dosage as needed.

Drug Interactions

A small arrow pointing down

This compounded formulation of Salicylic Acid 6%, Coal Tar Topical Solution 5%, and Clobetasol Propionate 0.05% Topical Gel is a targeted treatment for conditions such as psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, and eczema. It is dispensed as a semisolid gel through a pump mechanism, allowing for easy and precise application on the skin. However, it should not be applied on the face, groin, or axillae, and is not suitable for patients with known hypersensitivity to any of the components.

Salicylic acid, one of the active ingredients, may increase the absorption of other topical medications. Therefore, concurrent use of other topical treatments should be avoided. It may also increase the risk of skin irritation, particularly in patients with sensitive skin, and should be used with caution.

Coal tar, another active ingredient, may increase the risk of photosensitivity. Patients exposed to direct sunlight or ultraviolet light should use this formulation with caution. Like salicylic acid, coal tar may also cause skin irritation, particularly in patients with sensitive skin.

The third active ingredient, clobetasol propionate, may cause skin irritation and should be used with caution in patients with sensitive skin. It may also cause systemic absorption, particularly in patients with a history of systemic corticosteroid use, and should be used with caution.

If you have any questions about this formulation or its interaction with other medications, please do not hesitate to reach out for further information.
