Tenovate GN Cream is used to treat various types of skin infections, minimizing symptoms of inflammation such as redness, swelling, and itching. Tenovate GN Cream is only meant for external use and should be used as advised by your doctor. A thin layer of the medicine should be applied only to the affected areas of the skin with clean and dry hands. Wash your hands before and after the application of the medicine. If it gets into your eyes, nose, mouth, or vagina rinse with water. It may take several days to weeks for your symptoms to improve, but you should keep using this medicine regularly. The course of the treatment should be completed to ensure better efficacy of the medicine. If your condition does not improve or gets worse, you should talk to your doctor.
Tenovate GN Cream is a combination of two medicines: Clobetasol and Neomycin. Clobetasol is a steroid medicine that blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy. Neomycin is an antibiotic that stops bacterial growth by preventing the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions.
How should I use Tenovate GN Cream?
Use Tenovate GN Cream as directed by your doctor or follow the instructions on the label. Apply a thin layer to the affected area 2-3 times a day, or as advised. Wash your hands after applying unless you're treating an infection of the hands. Avoid contact with your eyes.
What precautions should I take when using Tenovate GN Cream?
Do not use Tenovate GN Cream on your face or in your eyes. Avoid covering the treated area with a bandage or dressing, as this may increase absorption and side effects. Use Tenovate GN Cream only for the condition it's prescribed for. Do not give it to others, even if their symptoms seem similar.
What happens if I use more of Tenovate GN Cream than recommended for a long time?
Using higher doses and longer periods of Tenovate GN Cream can cause skin discoloration, thinning, or weakening. It may also lead to increased hair growth, weight gain, high blood pressure, and facial rounding. Consult your doctor if you experience severe symptoms.
Can I stop using Tenovate GN Cream when my symptoms improve?
No, complete the full course of treatment even if you feel better. Your symptoms may improve before the infection is fully cured.
