Indications
Resorcinol, Sulphur is used for:
RESORCINOL
Used for treating psoriasis, hidradenitis suppurativa, and eczema of a sub-acute character
SULFUR
Sulphur has been administered internally for all sorts of skin diseases, generally without any good result, but occasionally chronic eczema associated with much itching appears to be benefited by it, so that the sulphur lozenge is a suitable laxative for these cases. Sulphur has been also given for bronchitis, for chronic rheumatism, and rheumatic myalgia, but it is very doubtful whether in these diseases there is much relief from this treatment

Mechanism of Action
SULFUR
Sulphur itself has no action on the skin, but some of it is converted into hydrogen sulphide, and that is a mild vascular stimulant, causing slight dilatation of the vessels, and in some persons, eczema. It kills the sarcoptes scabiei, and is therefore a parasiticide
