Compound Dithranol Ointment Price in Bangladesh

Compound dithranol ointments combine three ingredients in one small tube, and each does a different job. Knowing what they are, and where not to put them, matters more here than on most skin products, because dithranol irritates healthy skin and stains almost everything it touches.

Combined Dithranol sits under Anti-Eczema & Anti-Psoriasis.

What Is in the Tube

The listings on this shelf state their composition on the label. The common combination is:

Ingredient	What kind of ingredient it is	Worth knowing
Dithranol	A long-established treatment for plaque psoriasis	Irritates normal skin and stains brown-purple
Salicylic acid	Softens and lifts thick scale	Helps the other ingredients reach the skin
Boric acid	A mild antiseptic	Not for babies or large areas of broken skin
Coal tar	Slows skin-cell build-up	Present in some versions; strong smell

Read the carton for the exact percentages. Two tubes with similar names are not always the same formula.

Plaques Only, and Wash Your Hands

Dithranol is meant for the thickened, scaly patches of psoriasis and nothing around them. On normal skin it causes redness and burning.

• Apply a thin layer to the plaque itself, keeping it off the surrounding skin.
• Keep it away from the face, eyes, genitals and skin folds unless a doctor has said otherwise.
• Wash your hands straight after, or wear a glove.
• Stop and speak to a doctor if the skin becomes very red, blistered or painful.

Some dithranol treatments are left on only for a short time and then washed off; follow the directions given with the product or by your doctor rather than leaving it on longer.

It Stains Skin, Clothes and Bathrooms

This catches almost everyone the first time. Dithranol leaves a brown or purple stain on skin, hair, nails, clothing, bedding and the bath or tiles.

The stain on skin fades over days to weeks once treatment stops. On fabric and grout it is often permanent. Wear old clothes over treated areas, use old sheets, and rinse the basin with cool water straight away — hot water tends to fix the stain.

Psoriasis, Eczema and Ringworm Look Alike

Many people pick up a compound dithranol ointment for any scaly, itchy patch. Several different conditions look similar, and the right treatment differs.

Dithranol itself is a psoriasis treatment rather than an antifungal. If the patch is ringworm, which often has a raised, ring-shaped edge and spreads, a doctor or pharmacist may recommend an antifungal instead. Eczema usually needs moisturising and a different kind of cream altogether.

A rash that spreads, keeps returning, or affects a child is worth showing to a doctor before trying another tube. Children, and anyone pregnant or breastfeeding, should use these ointments only on medical advice.

Compound Dithranol Ointment Price in Bangladesh

These are small, locally made tubes, and the price follows the tube size far more than the maker. A larger tube costs less per gram, which matters for a treatment used every day over weeks.

Ointments and creams of the same composition sit at similar prices; an ointment is greasier and stays on thick plaques longer, while a cream is easier to spread.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is compound dithranol ointment used for?

Dithranol is a long-established treatment for plaque psoriasis. The compound versions add salicylic acid and boric acid, and sometimes coal tar.

Why has my skin turned brown where I applied it?

Dithranol stains skin brown or purple. It fades over days to weeks after treatment stops.

Can I use it on ringworm?

Dithranol is not an antifungal. For a ring-shaped, spreading rash, ask a doctor or pharmacist about an antifungal treatment.

Can I put it on my face?

Generally not, unless a doctor has advised it. Facial skin and skin folds are easily irritated.

Is it safe for children?

Use it on children only on medical advice. Boric acid in particular should not be used on babies.

How do I get the stain out of clothes?

Often it will not come out. Wear old clothes during treatment and rinse basins with cool water straight away.
