I'm having trouble finding Dipsalic F ointment at medical stores since they said it's not being made anymore. I've been using it for an allergic reaction, and nothing else I've tried is as effective. Can you suggest the best substitute for this ointment? I'm really concerned about finding something that works as well.
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Since Dipsalic F ointment is unavailable, I'll suggest some alternatives with similar ingredients:
Alternatives with Salicylic Acid and Urea
- Ursal 10% Ointment: Contains urea (10%) and salicylic acid (3%).
- Keralyt 5% Gel: Has salicylic acid (5%) and urea (10%).
- Salex 6% Cream: Contains salicylic acid (6%) and might be suitable for allergic areas.
Other Options
- CeraVe Renewing SA Cleanser: A gentle cleanser with salicylic acid (2%) and hyaluronic acid.
- Eucerin Advanced Repair Cream: A rich moisturizer with urea (10%) and ceramides

I've been dealing with this fungal infection for the past 7 months and finally got it cleared up with ringozone cream, but now I've got these blackish red spots where the infection used to be.

Can I use Evion 400 on my face every night? I've heard it's an antioxidant and good for the skin, but I'm wondering if it's safe to do this regularly. Is there anything I should be worried about?
Evion 400 is a brand name for Vitamin E capsules. It can be beneficial for the skin as it is an antioxidant. You can puncture the capsule and apply the oil directly to your face overnight. However, it is recommended to do a patch test first to check for any allergic reactions. Apply a small amount on your inner arm and wait for 24 hours to see if there is any redness, itching, or irritation. If there is no reaction, you can apply it on your face daily.
