Clobetasol

Clobetasol is a highly potent topical corticosteroid used for the treatment of inflammatory skin conditions. It is a prescription medication available in various formulations, such as creams, ointments, and gels, designed for application to the affected skin areas. Clobetasol works by reducing inflammation, itching, and redness by suppressing the immune system’s response.
The primary use of clobetasol is for the management of severe, localized skin conditions, such as psoriasis, eczema, and dermatitis. It is also used to treat various forms of inflammatory skin disorders, including lichen planus, seborrheic dermatitis, and granuloma annulare. Due to its potency, clobetasol should be used under the supervision of a healthcare professional to avoid potential side effects, such as skin atrophy, telangiectasia, and adrenal suppression.
