Clobe XL-S Ointment is a combination of two medicines: Clobetasol and Salicylic Acid. Clobetasol is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy. Salicylic Acid is a keratolytic medicine which breaks down keratin clumps, removes dead skin cells, and softens the skin. It also enhances the absorption of Clobetasol into the skin.
How to use Clobe XL-S Ointment?
Use Clobe XL-S Ointment as directed by your healthcare provider or the product label. Apply a thin layer of ointment to the affected areas of skin and ensure sufficient coverage. Usually, apply two to three times daily. Wash your hands after use unless treating a hand infection.
Can I stop using Clobe XL-S Ointment when my symptoms are relieved?
No, do not stop using Clobe XL-S Ointment and follow the prescribed treatment course until completely healed. Your symptoms may improve before the disease is fully treated.
What are the precautions that need to be taken while using Clobe XL-S Ointment?
Do not apply Clobe XL-S Ointment to the face. Do not exceed the recommended usage duration and avoid covering the treated area with a bandage or dressing, as this may increase absorption and potentially lead to side effects. This medication should only be used by the patient and must not be given to others, even if they have similar conditions.
Will Clobe XL-S Ointment be more effective if taken more than prescribed?
No, using Clobe XL-S Ointment in excess will not enhance its effectiveness.
