About Cariheal Ointment

Cariheal Ointment belongs to the class of medications called 'Debridement agents' used to remove dead skin, thereby improving healing. It also helps thin the pus in lesions (ulcers, cysts, bedsores, surgical wounds).

Cariheal Ointment contains Papain and Urea. These two medicines are keratolytic agents, increase moisture in the skin, and dissolve the keratin (protein present on the skin's outer layer). This effect makes dead skin cells fall off and accelerate healing. It also has an emollient effect and helps to soften the skin.

These side effects are usually mild and temporary. However, if these side effects persist or worsen, inform your doctor immediately.
