Elocon Lotion is typically applied to the affected area of the skin once daily or as directed by a doctor. You should not use it on the face, groin, or underarms, or for diaper rash unless your doctor specifically directs you to do so. Before using the lotion, you should wash and dry your hands, then clean and dry the affected area. Apply a thin film of medication as directed by your doctor, gently rubbing it in. Do not cover the treated area with bandages or other dressings unless your doctor instructs you to do so.
After applying Elocon Lotion, do not wash or rinse the medication off immediately. Wash your hands with soap and water after each use unless you are treating your hands. Avoid getting the medication in your eyes, nose, or mouth. If this happens, rinse the affected area thoroughly with water and contact your doctor if irritation persists.
Use Elocon Lotion regularly at the same time each day to get the most benefit from it. Do not use larger amounts of the medication than prescribed, apply it more frequently, or continue using it for longer than recommended, as this may increase your risk of side effects. If your condition does not improve after 2 weeks of treatment or worsens, contact your doctor.
