Ultravate Ointment is a topical medication made up of a super-high potency corticosteroid called halobetasol. We carry the brand choice of this medication in 0.05%!

Ultravate Ointment is used to treat a variety of skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis. Psoriasis is a long term skin disease where the skin cells have a much faster rate of growth and because of this, the surface of the skin will collect a buildup of cells. The buildup will form red, raised patches that are covered with silver-colored scales. Eczema (atopic dermatitis) is when areas of the skin, commonly the face, neck, elbows, wrists, groin, knees, and ankles become inflamed. This condition is considered an allergic-type skin condition as most times eczema flares up due to allergens in the air such as pollen. When the skin becomes inflamed, it becomes red, itchy, and dry, and in some cases even cracked and leathery. If the inflamed skin is scratched, dry patches and open sores with crusts may develop, resulting in potential for infection. 

Ultravate Ointment (halobetasol) is effective at treating skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis because this corticosteroid is able to reduce the swelling, itching, and redness that can occur in these types of conditions.
