For babies and children, the right amount of cream depends on their age. Your doctor or pharmacist can advise you. Skin creams can dry onto your clothes and bedding. This makes them more likely to catch fire. Avoid naked flames. Do not use clobetasone at the same time as other creams or ointments such as a moisturiser.
Wait at least 30 minutes between using clobetasone and any other product. If you need to use a dressing like a bandage or plaster, wait at least 10 minutes after putting clobetasone on.
When using clobetasone on babies with nappy rash, do not put the nappy on straight away. This helps to prevent side effects from the clobetasone. If you forget to use either the cream or ointment, do not worry, do it as soon as you remember. If you do not remember until it's within a few hours of your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your normal routine.
Some people get a burning or stinging feeling for a few minutes when they put the cream or ointment on their skin. This stops happening after you've been using it for a few days. Clobetasone cream contains cetostearyl alcohol and chlorocresol, which may cause local skin reactions or allergic reactions. Serious side effects happen to 1 in 10, people who use clobetasone.
You're more likely to have a serious side effect if you use clobetasone over a large patch of skin for a long time. Using clobetasone for a long time can make your skin thinner or give you stretch marks. Stretch marks are likely to be permanent, but they usually fade over time.
In rare cases, clobetasone can cause a allergic reaction anaphylaxis. In very rare cases, using clobetasone for a long time can slow down the normal growth of children and teenagers. This is beacuse it is a steroid. Your child's doctor will monitor their height and weight carefully while they are taking this medicine. This way, any issues with their growth can be spotted quickly and their treatment changed if needed.
Talk to your doctor if you're worried. They will be able to explain the benefits and risks of your child using clobetasone. These are not all the side effects of clobetasone. For a full list see the leaflet inside your medicine packet.
There's not enough research into clobetasone to say whether it's safe to use in pregnancy. If you're pregnant, or trying for a baby, talk to your doctor about the benefits and risks of using clobetasone. For more information about how clobetasone can affect you and your baby during pregnancy, read the leaflet about the best use of medicines in pregnancy BUMPs. If you are using clobetasone on your breasts, wash off any cream from your breasts before feeding your baby.
Then wash your hands before you touch your nipple to your baby's mouth. It's usually better to use cream rather than ointment when breastfeeding, as it's easier to wash off. It's very unlikely that other medicines will interfere with the way clobetasone works. This applies to prescription medicines as well as the ones you buy from a pharmacy or shop.
These medicines can increase the chances of side effects in the rest of your body. If you think the area of skin you are treating has become infected you should stop using Eumovate and consult your doctor.
Who shouldn't use Eumovate? Don't apply the cream to broken skin or open wounds, or areas of skin affected by any of the following conditions: Viral skin infections, such as chickenpox , shingles , cold sores or herpes simplex. Bacterial skin infections, such as impetigo. Fungal skin infections, such as thrush , ringworm , athlete's foot.
Acne rosacea. Inflammatory rash around the mouth perioral dermatitis. Itching without any associated inflammation or rash. Don't use the cream or ointment if you're allergic to any of its ingredients. Check the ingredients listed in the leaflet that comes with the cream or ointment if you know you have specific allergies. Never use Eumovate cream or ointment as a moisturiser.
Can I use Eumovate while pregnant or breastfeeding? Not unless you've discussed this with your doctor. Studies in animals have shown that corticosteroids applied to the skin of pregnant animals can cause abnormalities in the development of the foetus, such as cleft palate or slowed growth of the baby in the womb. Studies in animals do not necessarily relate to effects in humans, but there may be a small risk of such effects if enough steroid is absorbed through the skin into the bloodstream of pregnant women.
Similarly, if enough steroid is absorbed through the skin of breastfeeding women it could potentially pass into breast milk. If your doctor says you can use Eumovate while pregnant or breastfeeding you should not use it on large areas of skin, underneath airtight dressings, or for prolonged periods of time. This will minimise any absorption of the steroid. If you need to apply Eumovate to your breasts don't do this shortly before giving a feed.
Ask your doctor or pharmacist for further information. What are the possible side effects of Eumovate?
