Coldcare S Lotion is a combination of two medicines: Clobetasol and Salicylic Acid, which treats eczema and psoriasis. 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 do I use Coldcare S Lotion correctly?
To use Coldcare S Lotion effectively, apply a thin layer to the affected skin area in sufficient quantity. Typically, this should be done two or three times a day. Remember to wash your hands after using the lotion unless you're treating a skin infection on your hands.
Should I stop using Coldcare S Lotion once my symptoms improve?
No, do not discontinue using Coldcare S Lotion even if your symptoms seem to have subsided. Complete the full treatment course as directed by your doctor or the product label.
What precautions should I take when using Coldcare S Lotion?
When using Coldcare S Lotion, avoid applying it to your face. Do not use the medication for longer than recommended periods and never apply a bandage or dressing to the treated area, as this may increase absorption and risk of side effects. This product should only be used by the intended patient and should not be shared with others.
Will Coldcare S Lotion be more effective if I take more than prescribed?
No, taking more than prescribed will not make Coldcare S Lotion more effective. Overusing the medication can lead to excessive absorption into the body, potentially causing thinning or weakening of the skin and other serious side effects. If your symptoms worsen, consult your doctor for re-evaluation.
How should I store and dispose of Coldcare S Lotion?
