How Elocon Cream Works
Elocon Cream is a steroid medication that works by blocking the production of specific inflammatory chemical messengers (prostaglandins) responsible for skin redness, swelling, and itching. By targeting these underlying mechanisms, Elocon Cream effectively manages inflammation-related skin conditions, providing relief from discomfort and improving overall skin health.
