Description

Clobetasol Cream 0.05% is a high-potency topical corticosteroid used for the treatment of inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses. It works by suppressing the inflammatory response and relieving symptoms such as redness, swelling, and itching associated with various skin disorders.

The cream should be applied in a thin layer to the affected skin areas once or twice daily. Treatment duration should be limited to no more than two consecutive weeks to reduce the risk of systemic absorption and associated adverse effects. It is not intended for long-term use or for application over large surface areas.

Prolonged use can lead to side effects such as skin thinning, local irritation, and potential systemic effects including adrenal suppression. Caution is advised when used with other corticosteroid products due to the risk of cumulative systemic exposure. The product should be used under medical supervision, particularly in pediatric patients or when treating sensitive skin areas.
