DERMOVATE Clobetasol propionate QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE COMPOSITION _DERMOVATE_ Cream and Ointment contains Clobetasol propionate 0.05 % w/w. PHARMACEUTICAL FORM Cream and Ointment. CLINICAL PARTICULARS Indications _DERMOVATE_ is a very potent topical corticosteroid indicated for adults, elderly and children over 1 year for the relief of the inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of steroid responsive dermatoses. These include the following: - Psoriasis (excluding widespread plaque psoriasis). - Recalcitrant dermatoses - Lichen planus - Discoid lupus erythematosus - Other skin conditions which do not respond satisfactorily to less potent steroids Dosage and Administration _Ointment _ Ointments are especially appropriate for dry, lichenified or scaly lesions. _Cream_ Creams are especially appropriate for moist or weeping surfaces. Adults, Elderly and Children over 1 year Apply thinly and gently rub in using only enough to cover the entire affected area once or twice a day for up to 4 weeks 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. Repeated short courses of _DERMOVATE_ may be used to control exacerbations. In more resistant lesions, especially where there is hyperkeratosis, the effect of _DERMOVATE_ can be enhanced, if necessary, by occluding the treatment area with polythene film. Overnight occlusion only is usually adequate to bring about a satisfactory response. Thereafter improvement can usually be maintained by application without occlusion. If the condition worsens or does not improve within 2-4 weeks, treatment and diagnosis should be re-evaluated. Treatment should not be continued for more than 4 weeks. If continuous treatment is necessary, a less potent preparation should be used. The maximum weekly dose should not exceed 50gms/week. Atopic dermatitis (eczema) Therapy with _DERMOVATE_ cream and ointment should be gradually discontinued Прочитать полный документ
