Clobetasol propionate is used to help reduce the redness and itchiness of certain skin and scalp problems. These skin problems include eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis and neurodermatitis that have not responded to milder steroid creams or ointments, lotions or scalp applications.
Clobetasol propionate cream and ointment produced HPA axis suppression when used at doses as low as 2 g per day for 1 week in patients with eczema. If HPA axis suppression is noted, an attempt should be made to withdraw the drug, to reduce the frequency of application, or to substitute a less potent corticosteroid.
