PHARMACODYNAMICS: Clobetasone Butyrate is a topically active

which has anti-inflammatory, anti-pruritic and vasoconstrictive
actions.
PHARMACOKINETICS:
Topical
corticosteroids
have
anti-inflammatory,
anti-pruritic
and
vasoconstrictive actions. When administered topically, particularly
under occlusive dressings or
when the skin is broken, sufficient corticosteroid may be absorbed to
give systemic effects.
Corticosteroids are extensively bound to plasmaproteins. Only unbound
corticosteroids have
pharmacological effects or are metabolised. They are metabolised
mainly in the liver, also in the
kidney, and are excreted in the urine.
INDICATIONS: All types of eczema and dermatitis, including atopic
eczema, photodermatitis,
otitis externa, primary irritant and allergic dermatitis, prurigo
nodularis, seborrhoeic dermatitis
and insect bite reactions. Maintenance between courses of more potent
topical steroids in more
resistant dermatoses.
CONTRAINDICATIONS: Hypersensitivity to Clobetasone Butyrate, to other
corticosteroids or to
any ingredient in this preparation, rosacea, acne vulgaris, peri-oral
dermatitis, primary cutaneous
viral infections (eg. herpessimplex, chicken pox). The use of
U-Closone is not indicated in the
treatment of primarily infected skin lesions
caused by infection with fungi or
yeasts (eg.
candidiasis, tinea), or bacteria (eg. impetigo), peri-anal and genital
pruritus.
