1 What Dermovate is and what it is
used for
Dermovate contains a medicine called clobetasol
propionate. It belongs to a group of medicines
called steroids. It helps to reduce swelling and
irritation.
Dermovate is used to help reduce the redness and
itchiness of certain skin problems. These skin
problems include:
• frequently relapsing eczema
• psoriasis (thickened patches of inflamed, red
skin, often covered by silvery scales), excluding
widespread plaque psoriasis
• lichen planus, (a skin disease that causes itchy,
reddish-purple, flat-topped bumps on the wrists,
forearms or lower legs)
• discoid lupus erythematosus (a disease of the
skin most often affecting the face, ears and
scalp causing scarring and increased sensitivity
of the affected skin to sunlight)
• dermatitis and other skin conditions that have
not responded to milder steroid creams or
ointments.
2 What you need to know before
you use Dermovate
Do not use Dermovate:
• if you are allergic (hypersensitive) to clobetasol
propionate or any of the other ingredients of this
medicine (listed in Section 6)
• on a child under 1 year of age
• to treat any of the following skin problems, it
could make them worse:
- acne
- severe flushing of skin on and around your
nose (rosacea)
- spotty red rash around your mouth (perioral
dermatitis)
- itching around your anus or genitals (penis or
vagina)
- infected skin (unless the infection is being
treated with an anti-infective medicine at the
same time)
- itchy skin which is not inflamed
- widespread plaque psoriasis, except single
lesions.
Do not use if any of the above apply to you. If you
are not sure, talk to your doctor or pharmacist
before using Dermovate.
Warning and precautions
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using
Dermovate if:
• you have previously had an allergic reaction with
another steroid.
• you are applying the cream under an airtight
dressing, including a child’s nappy. These
dressings make it easier for the active
ingredient to pass through the skin. It is possible
to accidentally end up using too much cream.
• make sure that the skin is cleansed before a
fresh dressing is applied to prevent infections.
• you are applying the cream on broken or
damaged skin or within skin folds.
• you are applying to a large surface area.
• you have psoriasis, your doctor will want to see
you more often.
• you are using for a chronic leg ulcer as you may
be at increased risk of local allergic reaction or
infection.
• you are applying near eyes or on eyelids, as
cataracts or glaucoma may result if the cream
repeatedly enters the eye.
• you are applying to thin skin such as the face, as
Dermovate may cause skin thinning. Use on the
face should be limited to 5 days. Dressings or
bandages should not be used on the face where
the cream is applied.
Contact your doctor if you experience blurred
vision or other visual disturbances.
If an infection develops during the use of this
medicine, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.
If you are not sure if any of the above apply to
you, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using
this medicine.
Package Leaflet: Information for the User
Children
• Do not use this medicine in children under 1
year of age.
• Avoid continuous treatment for a long period of
time in infants and children over 1 year of age,
as their skin is thinner than adults and as a
result may absorb larger amounts.
• Use on children should be limited to 5 days and
reviewed weekly.
• Dressings or bandages should not be used on
children where the cream is applied.
Other medicines and Dermovate
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking,
have recently taken or might take any other
medicine, especially if you are taking ritonavir
and itraconazole medications.
Pregnancy, breast-feeding and fertility
If you are pregnant or breast-feeding, think you
may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby,
ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice
before taking this medicine.
If you do use Dermovate when breast-feeding, do
not use it on your breast area to ensure that the
baby does not accidentally get Dermovate in their
mouth.
Dermovate Cream contains propylene glycol,
cetostearyl alcohol and chlorocresol
Propylene glycol may cause skin irritation.
Cetostearyl alcohol may cause local skin reactions
(eg. contact dermatitis). Chlorocresol may
cause allergic reactions.
3 How to use Dermovate
Always use this medicine exactly as your doctor
has told you. Check with your doctor or pharmacist
if you are not sure.
Using this medicine
• You usually apply a thin layer of Dermovate
once or twice a day. This may be reduced as
your skin begins to get better, or stopped
when better. Your doctor may prescribe a
weaker steroid for you to use instead.
• If you are also using an emollient (moisturiser),
allow time for Dermovate to be absorbed into
your skin before applying the emollient.
• This cream is for use on your skin only.
• Do not use for more than 4 weeks without
talking to your doctor. If you need treatment for
a long time, your doctor may decide you
need to use a milder cream or ointment.
• If your skin problem worsens or does not
improve within 2 to 4 weeks, talk to your doctor.
• The germs that cause infections like the warm
and moist conditions under dressings. If directed
to cover the treated area with a dressing, always
clean the skin before a fresh dressing is put on
to help prevent infection of the skin beneath the
dressing.
• If you are applying the cream on someone else
make sure you wash your hands after use or
wear disposable plastic gloves.
Guidance on how to apply the cream
1 Wash your hands.
2 Apply a thin layer to the affected area(s) and
gently rub into the skin until it has all
disappeared. You can measure how much
Dermovate to use with your fingertip. For
children you will need to use less cream but still
use an adult finger to measure out the
fingertip unit. This picture shows one fingertip
unit.
3 Unless you are meant to apply the cream to
your hands as a part of the treatment, wash
them again after using the cream.
For an adult
Do not worry if you find you need a little more or
less than this. It is only a rough guide.
Ref:1060/150318/1/B
For a child aged 1 – 10
Use in children
• Do not use this medicine on children under 1
year of age.
• It is especially important in children not to
exceed the prescribed amount.

unless your doctor has told you to use it for
longer. Your doctor may want to see the child
every week, whilst using the cream.
• Dressings or bandages should not be used on
children where the cream is applied.
If you have psoriasis
If you have thick patches of psoriasis on your
elbows or knees, your doctor may suggest applying the cream under an airtight dressing. It
will only be at night to help the cream to start
working. After a short period of time you will then
apply the cream as normal.
If you apply Dermovate to your face
You should only apply the cream to your face if
your doctor tells you to. It should be limited to only
5 days as the skin on your face thins easily.
Dressings or bandages should not be used on the
face where the cream is applied. Do not let the
cream get into your eyes. If it does, wash it out
with plenty of water.
If you use more Dermovate than you should
If you apply too much or if accidentally swallowed,
it could make you ill. Talk to your doctor or go to
hospital as soon as possible.
If you forget to use Dermovate
If you forget to apply your cream, apply it as soon
as you remember. If it is close to the time you are
next meant to apply it, wait until this time.
Do not apply extra Dermovate to make up for a
missed dose.
If you stop using Dermovate
If you use Dermovate regularly make sure you talk
to your doctor before you stop using it as your
condition may get worse if stopped suddenly.
If you have any further questions on the use of this
medicine, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

Warning and precautions
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using
Clobetasol propionate if:
• you have previously had an allergic reaction with
another steroid.
• you are applying the cream under an airtight
dressing, including a child’s nappy. These
dressings make it easier for the active ingredient
to pass through the skin. It is possible to
accidentally end up using too much cream.
• make sure that the skin is cleansed before a
fresh dressing is applied to prevent infections.
• you are applying the cream on broken or
damaged skin or within skin folds.
• you are applying to a large surface area.
• you have psoriasis, your doctor will want to see
you more often.
• you are using for a chronic leg ulcer as you may
be at increased risk of local allergic reaction or
infection.
• you are applying near eyes or on eyelids, as
cataracts or glaucoma may result if the cream
repeatedly enters the eye.
• you are applying to thin skin such as the face, as
Clobetasol propionate may cause skin thinning.
Use on the face should be limited to 5 days.
Dressings or bandages should not be used on
the face where the cream is applied.
Contact your doctor if you experience blurred
vision or other visual disturbances.

you, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using
this medicine.
Children
• Do not use this medicine in children under 1
year of age.
• Avoid continuous treatment for a long period of
time in infants and children over 1 year of age,
as their skin is thinner than adults and as a
result may absorb larger amounts.
• Use on children should be limited to 5 days and
reviewed weekly.
• Dressings or bandages should not be used on
children where the cream is applied.
Other medicines and Clobetasol propionate

cause allergic reactions.
3 How to use Clobetasol Propionate
Always use this medicine exactly as your doctor
has told you. Check with your doctor or pharmacist
if you are not sure.
Using this medicine
• You usually apply a thin layer of Clobetasol
propionate
once or twice a day. This may be reduced as
your skin begins to get better, or stopped
when better. Your doctor may prescribe a
weaker steroid for you to use instead.
• If you are also using an emollient (moisturiser),
allow time for Clobetasol propionate to be
absorbed into your skin before applying the
emollient.
• This cream is for use on your skin only.
• Do not use for more than 4 weeks without
talking to your doctor. If you need treatment for
a long time, your doctor may decide you need to
use a milder cream or ointment.
• If your skin problem worsens or does not
improve within 2 to 4 weeks, talk to your doctor.
• The germs that cause infections like the warm
and moist conditions under dressings. If directed
to cover the treated area with a dressing, always
clean the skin before a fresh dressing is put on
to help prevent infection of the skin beneath the
dressing.
• If you are applying the cream on someone else
make sure you wash your hands after use or
wear disposable plastic gloves.
Guidance on how to apply the cream
1 Wash your hands.
2 Apply a thin layer to the affected area(s) and
gently rub into the skin until it has all
disappeared. You can measure how much
Clobetasol propionate to use with your fingertip.
For children you will need to use less cream but
still use an adult finger to measure out the
fingertip unit. This picture shows one fingertip
unit.
3 Unless you are meant to apply the cream to
your hands as a part of the treatment, wash
them again after using the cream.
For an adult
Ref:1060/150318/3/B
Do not worry if you find you need a little more or
less than this. It is only a rough guide.
For a child aged 1 – 10
Use in children
• Do not use this medicine on children under 1
year of age.
• It is especially important in children not to
exceed the prescribed amount.
• A course of treatment for a child over the age of
1 year should not normally last more than 5 days
unless your doctor has told you to use it for
longer. Your doctor may want to see the child
every week, whilst using the cream.
• Dressings or bandages should not be used on
children where the cream is applied.
If you have psoriasis
If you have thick patches of psoriasis on your
elbows or knees, your doctor may suggest
applying the cream under an airtight dressing. It
will only be at night to help the cream to start
working. After a short period of time you will then
apply the cream as normal.
If you apply Clobetasol propionate to your
face
You should only apply the cream to your face if
your doctor tells you to. It should be limited to only
5 days as the skin on your face thins easily.
Dressings or bandages should not be used on the
face where the cream is applied. Do not let the
cream get into your eyes. If it does, wash it out
with plenty of water.
If you use more Clobetasol propionate than
you should
If you apply too much or if accidentally swallowed,
it could make you ill. Talk to your doctor or go to
hospital as soon as possible.
If you forget to use Clobetasol propionate
If you forget to apply your cream, apply it as soon
as you remember. If it is close to the time you are
next meant to apply it, wait until this time.
Do not apply extra Clobetasol propionate to make
up for a missed dose.
If you stop using Clobetasol propionate
If you use Clobetasol propionate regularly make
sure you talk to your doctor before you stop using
it as your condition may get worse if stopped
suddenly. If you have any further questions on the
use of this medicine, ask your doctor or
pharmacist.

- itching around your anus or genitals (penis or
vagina)
- infected skin (unless the infection is being
treated with an anti-infective medicine at the
same time)
- itchy skin which is not inflamed
- widespread plaque psoriasis, except single
lesions.
Do not use if any of the above apply to you. If you
are not sure, talk to your doctor or pharmacist
before using Clovate.
Warning and precautions
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using
Clovate if:
• you have previously had an allergic reaction with
another steroid.
• you are applying the cream under an airtight
dressing, including a child’s nappy. These
dressings make it easier for the active ingredient
to pass through the skin. It is possible to
accidentally end up using too much cream.
• make sure that the skin is cleansed before a
fresh dressing is applied to prevent infections.
• you are applying the cream on broken or
damaged skin or within skin folds.
• you are applying to a large surface area.
• you have psoriasis, your doctor will want to see
you more often.
• you are using for a chronic leg ulcer as you may
be at increased risk of local allergic reaction or
infection.
• you are applying near eyes or on eyelids, as
cataracts or glaucoma may result if the cream
repeatedly enters the eye.
• you are applying to thin skin such as the face, as
Clovate may cause skin thinning. Use on the
face should be limited to 5 days. Dressings or
bandages should not be used on the face where
the cream is applied.
Contact your doctor if you experience blurred
vision or other visual disturbances.
If an infection develops during the use of this
medicine, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.
Children
• Do not use this medicine in children under 1
year of age.
• Avoid continuous treatment for a long period of
time in infants and children over 1 year of age,
as their skin is thinner than adults and as a
result may absorb larger amounts.
• Use on children should be limited to 5 days and
reviewed weekly.
• Dressings or bandages should not be used on
children where the cream is applied.
Pregnancy, breast-feeding and fertility
If you are pregnant or breast-feeding, think you
may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby,
ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice
before taking this medicine.
If you do use Clovate when breast-feeding, do not
use it on your breast area to ensure that the baby
does not accidentally get Clovate in their mouth.
Clovate Cream contains propylene glycol,
cetostearyl alcohol and chlorocresol
Propylene glycol may cause skin irritation.
Cetostearyl alcohol may cause local skin reactions
(eg. contact dermatitis). Chlorocresol may
cause allergic reactions.
3 How to use Clovate
Always use this medicine exactly as your doctor
has told you. Check with your doctor or pharmacist
if you are not sure.
Using this medicine
• You usually apply a thin layer of Clovate
once or twice a day. This may be reduced as
your skin begins to get better, or stopped
when better. Your doctor may prescribe a
weaker steroid for you to use instead.
• If you are also using an emollient (moisturiser),
allow time for Clovate to be absorbed into
your skin before applying the emollient.
• This cream is for use on your skin only.
• Do not use for more than 4 weeks without
talking to your doctor. If you need treatment for
a long time, your doctor may decide you need to
use a milder cream or ointment.
• If your skin problem worsens or does not
improve within 2 to 4 weeks, talk to your doctor.
• The germs that cause infections like the warm
and moist conditions under dressings. If directed
to cover the treated area with a dressing, always
clean the skin before a fresh dressing is put on
to help prevent infection of the skin beneath the
dressing.
• If you are applying the cream on someone else
make sure you wash your hands after use or
wear disposable plastic gloves.
Guidance on how to apply the cream
1 Wash your hands.
2 Apply a thin layer to the affected area(s) and
gently rub into the skin until it has all
disappeared. You can measure how much
Clovate to use with your fingertip. For
children you will need to use less cream but still
use an adult finger to measure out the fingertip
unit. This picture shows one fingertip unit.
3 Unless you are meant to apply the cream to
your hands as a part of the treatment, wash
them again after using the cream.
For an adult
Ref:1060/150318/2/B
Do not worry if you find you need a little more or
less than this. It is only a rough guide.
For a child aged 1 – 10
Use in children
• Do not use this medicine on children under 1
year of age.
• It is especially important in children not to
exceed the prescribed amount.
• A course of treatment for a child over the age of
1 year should not normally last more than 5 days
unless your doctor has told you to use it for
longer. Your doctor may want to see the child
every week, whilst using the cream.
• Dressings or bandages should not be used on
children where the cream is applied.
If you have psoriasis
If you have thick patches of psoriasis on your
elbows or knees, your doctor may suggest
applying the cream under an airtight dressing. It
will only be at night to help the cream to start
working. After a short period of time you will then
apply the cream as normal.
If you apply Clovate to your face
You should only apply the cream to your face if
your doctor tells you to. It should be limited to only
5 days as the skin on your face thins easily.
Dressings or bandages should not be used on the
face where the cream is applied. Do not let the
cream get into your eyes. If it does, wash it out
with plenty of water.
If you use more Clovate than you should
If you apply too much or if accidentally swallowed,
it could make you ill. Talk to your doctor or go to
hospital as soon as possible.
If you forget to use Clovate
If you forget to apply your cream, apply it as soon
as you remember. If it is close to the time you are
next meant to apply it, wait until this time.
Do not apply extra Clovate to make up for a
missed dose.
If you stop using Clovate
If you use Clovate regularly make sure you talk to
your doctor before you stop using it as your condition may get worse if stopped suddenly.
If you have any further questions on the use of this
medicine, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
