Warnings
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using if you experience newly developed bone pain or worsening of previous bone symptoms during a treatment with Dermovate especially if you have been using Clobetasol for a prolonged time or repeatedly.
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using if you use other oral/topical medication containing corticosteroids or medication intended to control your immune system (e.g. for autoimmune disease or after a transplantation). Combining with these medicines may result in serious infections.
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using if you are applying the ointment 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 ointment.
