Aclovate Cream contains the active ingredient alclometasone dipropionate. It is a prescription topical corticosteroid used to reduce inflammation and itching caused by certain skin conditions.

Inflammatory and Itchy Skin Conditions

Aclovate Cream is used to relieve symptoms of corticosteroid-responsive skin conditions.

These may include conditions such as:

  • Eczema
  • Dermatitis
  • Psoriasis
  • Other inflammatory skin rashes

These conditions may cause symptoms such as:

  • Redness
  • Itching
  • Swelling
  • Dryness
  • Skin irritation

How Aclovate Cream Works

Aclovate Cream belongs to a group of medications called topical corticosteroids.

It works by reducing inflammation in the skin. This can help decrease redness, swelling, itching, and discomfort.

Important Note

Aclovate Cream helps control symptoms, but it does not cure the underlying skin condition.

Use it only on the areas recommended by your healthcare provider and only for the length of time prescribed.

Aclovate Cream is for use on the skin only.

Apply a thin layer to the affected area 2 to 3 times daily, or exactly as directed by your healthcare provider.

How to Apply the Cream

  1. Wash your hands before applying the medication.
  2. Gently clean and dry the affected skin.
  3. Apply a small amount of Aclovate Cream in a thin layer.
  4. Rub it in gently until it is absorbed.
  5. Wash your hands again after applying the cream, unless your hands are the area being treated.

Avoid the Eyes, Nose, and Mouth

Do not get Aclovate Cream in your eyes, nose, or mouth.

If this happens, rinse the area well with water.

Be especially careful when applying the cream near the eyes because corticosteroids used around the eyes for long periods may increase the risk of eye problems such as glaucoma.

Do Not Cover the Treated Area

Do not cover, bandage, or tightly wrap the treated skin unless your healthcare provider tells you to.

Covering the area can increase the amount of medication absorbed through the skin and may increase the risk of side effects.

Use Only as Prescribed

Use Aclovate Cream only for the skin condition it was prescribed to treat.

Do not apply more cream, use it more often, or continue treatment longer than recommended.

For children, do not use Aclovate Cream for longer than 3 weeks unless specifically directed by a healthcare provider.

What to Do If You Miss an Application

If you forget to apply Aclovate Cream, apply it when you remember.

If it is almost time for your next scheduled application, skip the missed application and continue with your regular schedule.

Do not apply extra cream to make up for a missed application.

When to Contact Your Healthcare Provider

Contact your healthcare provider if your skin condition becomes worse, does not improve, or you develop severe irritation, swelling, or signs of infection.

Do not continue treatment longer than prescribed without medical advice.

Allergic Reactions

Do not use Aclovate Cream if you are allergic to alclometasone dipropionate or any ingredient in the cream.

Stop using it and contact your healthcare provider if you develop severe redness, swelling, rash, or other signs of an allergic reaction.

Skin Infections

Tell your healthcare provider if the skin you are treating is infected.

Topical corticosteroids can sometimes make bacterial, fungal, or viral skin infections worse if the infection is not treated properly.

Do not apply Aclovate Cream to open wounds or badly damaged skin unless your healthcare provider tells you to.

Pregnancy

Tell your healthcare provider if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant.

Use Aclovate Cream only if your healthcare provider believes the expected benefit is greater than the potential risk.

Use the smallest amount needed for the shortest possible time.

Breastfeeding

Tell your healthcare provider if you are breastfeeding.

Do not apply Aclovate Cream directly to the breast or nipple where a nursing infant could come into contact with it.

Long-Term Use

Aclovate Cream is generally intended for short-term treatment.

Using topical corticosteroids for too long can increase the risk of side effects, especially when used over large areas, under bandages, or on thin skin.

Do not continue treatment longer than prescribed.

Use in Children

Children may absorb more corticosteroid through the skin than adults and may be more sensitive to side effects.

Use Aclovate Cream in children only as directed by a healthcare provider.

Do not use it for longer than 3 weeks in a child unless specifically instructed.

Avoid the Eyes

Do not get Aclovate Cream in your eyes.

If this happens, rinse your eyes thoroughly with water.

Long-term corticosteroid use around the eyes may increase the risk of problems such as glaucoma or cataracts.

Other Medications and Skin Products

Tell your healthcare provider about all prescription medications, over-the-counter products, and topical treatments you use.

Do not apply other medicated creams or ointments to the same area unless your healthcare provider tells you it is safe.

Skin Thinning

Prolonged or excessive use of Aclovate Cream can cause the skin to become thinner.

Other possible changes include:

  • Easy bruising
  • Stretch marks
  • Visible small blood vessels
  • Changes in skin color

Contact your healthcare provider if you notice these changes.

Possible Steroid Withdrawal After Prolonged Use

Topical corticosteroid withdrawal is uncommon when Aclovate Cream is used correctly for a short period.

However, prolonged or frequent use of topical steroids can sometimes lead to worsening redness, burning, or itching after the medication is stopped.

Do not use Aclovate Cream continuously for long periods unless your healthcare provider is monitoring your treatment.

When to Contact Your Healthcare Provider

Contact your healthcare provider if your skin condition gets worse, does not improve, or you develop severe irritation, swelling, pus, spreading redness, or other signs of infection.

How often should I apply Aclovate Cream?

Apply a thin layer of Aclovate Cream to the affected skin 2 to 3 times daily, or exactly as directed by your healthcare provider. Do not apply more cream or use it more often than prescribed.

Can children use Aclovate Cream?

Aclovate Cream may be used in children when recommended by a healthcare provider. Children can absorb more corticosteroid through the skin than adults, so they may be more sensitive to side effects. Do not use Aclovate Cream in a child for longer than 3 weeks unless a healthcare provider specifically tells you to.

How quickly does Aclovate Cream work?

Some people may notice less itching, redness, or inflammation within a few days. How quickly it works depends on the skin condition and how severe it is. Contact your healthcare provider if your symptoms do not improve or become worse.

Can I use Aclovate Cream with other skincare products?

Tell your healthcare provider about any other creams, ointments, medications, or skincare products you use on the same area. Do not apply other medicated products to the treated skin unless your healthcare provider says it is safe. If you use moisturizers, your healthcare provider or pharmacist can tell you how to space them from Aclovate Cream.

Can Aclovate Cream be used on sensitive skin?

Aclovate Cream may be prescribed for sensitive or inflamed skin, but it should be used carefully and only as directed. Some areas, such as the face, groin, and skin folds, can absorb more corticosteroid and may be more likely to develop side effects. Use the smallest amount needed and avoid prolonged treatment unless your healthcare provider recommends it.
