4.2 Posology and method of administration
ROUTE OF ADMINISTRATION: CUTANEOUS
ADULTS, ELDERLY, CHILDREN AND INFANTS
Creams are especially appropriate for moist or weeping surfaces.
Apply thinly and gently rub in using only enough to cover the entire
affected area once or twice a day
until improvement occurs, then reduce the frequency of application or
change the treatment to a less
potent preparation. Allow adequate time for absorption after each
application before applying an
emollient.
Therapy with topical corticosteroids should be gradually discontinued

emollient continued as maintenance therapy.
Rebound of pre-existing dermatoses can occur with abrupt
discontinuation of topical corticosteroids
especially with potent preparations.

Continuous daily treatment for longer than four weeks is not
recommended. If the condition worsens or
does not improve within four weeks, treatment and diagnosis should be
re-evaluated.
