Elocon Ointment contains mometasone furoate 0.1%, a prescription topical corticosteroid. It is used to reduce itching, redness, swelling, and inflammation caused by certain skin conditions that respond to corticosteroid treatment.
It may be prescribed for conditions such as eczema and dermatitis, especially when the affected skin is dry, thickened, or scaly.
Elocon Ointment may be used to help control eczema flare-ups.
Eczema can cause dry, itchy, inflamed, cracked, or rough skin. Elocon works by calming inflammation in the affected area, which can reduce itching, redness, and irritation.
The ointment does not cure eczema permanently, but it can help control symptoms during a flare-up.
Elocon Ointment may also be prescribed for certain types of dermatitis, which means inflammation of the skin.
Depending on the cause, dermatitis may lead to redness, itching, swelling, dryness, scaling, or discomfort. Elocon helps reduce the inflammatory response that causes these symptoms.
Mometasone furoate belongs to a group of medicines called topical corticosteroids.
When the skin becomes inflamed, the body releases substances that contribute to swelling, redness, and itching. Elocon reduces the activity of these inflammatory substances and lowers some of the immune activity in the treated skin.
This helps calm the area and make symptoms more manageable.
Elocon Ointment has a thicker and more occlusive texture than Elocon Cream.
An ointment may be especially useful on areas of skin that are:
Because ointments help hold moisture in the skin, they may be more suitable for dry skin conditions. Creams may sometimes be preferred for areas that are less dry or where a lighter texture is more comfortable.
Your healthcare provider will decide which formulation is more appropriate for your skin condition.
Some people may notice improvement in itching, redness, or inflammation within several days.
The exact response depends on the condition being treated, how severe it is, and how consistently the ointment is used.
If your skin does not improve within about 2 weeks, or if it becomes worse, contact your healthcare provider.
Elocon Ointment is applied directly to the affected skin.
A thin layer is generally spread over the area once daily. Use only enough to lightly cover the skin.
Avoid applying the ointment to the eyes, mouth, or other sensitive areas.
Unless your healthcare provider specifically tells you otherwise, avoid using it on the face, groin, or underarms, where the skin is thinner and more likely to absorb the medication.
No. Elocon reduces inflammation, but it does not kill bacteria, fungi, or viruses.
Corticosteroids can sometimes hide the symptoms of an infection or allow an untreated infection to become worse.
Contact your healthcare provider if the treated area becomes increasingly painful, warm, swollen, produces pus, or develops other signs of infection.
Elocon is a potent topical corticosteroid. Using too much, applying it over large areas, using it for a long time, or covering it with airtight dressings can increase how much medication is absorbed through the skin.
Excessive or prolonged use may increase the risk of:
Using only the amount prescribed for the shortest appropriate time helps reduce these risks.
Elocon Ointment usually controls symptoms rather than permanently curing the underlying condition.
Conditions such as eczema and dermatitis may return after treatment stops, especially if you are exposed again to a trigger.
If flare-ups happen frequently, speak with your healthcare provider before repeatedly restarting the ointment.
Use Elocon Ointment exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Apply a thin layer to the affected skin, usually once daily, and stop when the condition is controlled unless you are told otherwise.
Do not use more ointment or apply it more often to make it work faster. If your skin becomes worse, develops signs of infection, or does not improve as expected, contact your healthcare provider.
Elocon Ointment contains mometasone furoate 0.1% and is applied directly to the skin. It is usually used once daily to reduce itching, redness, swelling, and inflammation caused by certain skin conditions.
Use it exactly as directed by your healthcare provider. Do not apply it more often or for longer than prescribed.
Wash your hands before using Elocon Ointment.
If needed, gently clean the affected area and pat it dry. Avoid scrubbing the skin, as this can make irritation worse.
Apply a small amount in a thin layer over the affected skin.
Gently rub the ointment in until it is evenly spread. You do not need to apply a thick coating.
Using more ointment will not make the medicine work faster and may increase the chance of side effects.
Elocon Ointment is generally applied once a day.
Try to use it at about the same time each day. If your healthcare provider gives you a different schedule, follow those instructions instead.
Wash your hands after applying the ointment unless your hands are the area being treated.
This helps prevent the medicine from accidentally spreading to your eyes, mouth, or other areas of your body.
Do not apply Elocon Ointment to the face, groin, or underarms unless your healthcare provider specifically tells you to.
The skin in these areas is thinner and can absorb more corticosteroid, which may increase the risk of side effects.
Also avoid getting the ointment in your eyes, mouth, or vagina.
Do not cover the treated area with plastic wrap, tight bandages, or airtight dressings unless your healthcare provider specifically recommends it.
Covering the skin can increase how much medication is absorbed and may raise the risk of skin thinning or other corticosteroid-related effects.
Use Elocon only for the length of time recommended by your healthcare provider.
Treatment should usually be stopped when the skin condition is under control. If your skin does not improve within about 2 weeks, or if it becomes worse, contact your healthcare provider.
Mometasone is a potent topical corticosteroid. Using it for too long, over large areas, or under covered skin can increase the risk of side effects.
These may include skin thinning, stretch marks, changes in skin color, visible small blood vessels, or increased absorption of corticosteroid into the body.
If you forget to apply Elocon Ointment, use it when you remember unless it is almost time for your next scheduled application.
If your next application is due soon, skip the missed one and return to your usual schedule.
Do not apply extra ointment to make up for a missed application.
Contact your healthcare provider if you develop severe burning, worsening redness, swelling, blistering, or a new rash.
You should also contact them if the area becomes more painful, warm, swollen, or begins to drain pus, as these may be signs of infection.
Store Elocon Ointment at room temperature, away from excessive heat and moisture.
Keep the tube tightly closed when not in use and store it out of the reach of children and pets.
Apply Elocon Ointment once daily in a thin layer to the affected skin. Use only the amount needed to cover the area, avoid sensitive areas unless directed, and do not continue treatment longer than prescribed.
If your skin does not improve, becomes worse, or develops signs of infection, contact your healthcare provider.
Elocon Ointment (Mometasone Furoate) is available in the following forms and strength:
Do not apply Elocon Ointment to open wounds, infected skin, or areas that are oozing unless your healthcare provider specifically tells you to.
Topical corticosteroids can reduce the skin’s local immune response and may make some infections harder to recognize or control.
Use Elocon Ointment only for the length of time recommended by your healthcare provider.
Long-term or excessive use may increase the risk of skin thinning, easy bruising, stretch marks, changes in skin color, or visible small blood vessels.
Elocon Ointment may occasionally cause burning, itching, redness, irritation, rash, or other skin reactions.
Stop using it and contact your healthcare provider if the treated area becomes significantly worse or you develop a new rash or signs of an allergic reaction.
Before using Elocon Ointment, tell your healthcare provider about all prescription medicines, over-the-counter products, vitamins, supplements, and other skin treatments you use.
You should also tell them about any medical conditions that may affect your skin or immune system.
If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, talk to your healthcare provider before using Elocon Ointment.
Your healthcare provider can decide whether treatment is appropriate and may recommend using the smallest amount needed for the shortest possible time.
Use Elocon Ointment only for the skin condition for which it was prescribed.
Do not share the medication with another person, even if they have similar symptoms. Their skin condition may require a different treatment.
Apply Elocon Ointment only as directed by your healthcare provider. Avoid broken or infected skin, do not use it longer than prescribed, and contact your healthcare provider if you develop worsening irritation, signs of infection, or other unusual skin changes.
If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, talk to your healthcare provider before using Elocon Ointment. Your healthcare provider can weigh the possible benefits and risks and decide whether treatment is appropriate. If it is used, the smallest effective amount should generally be used for the shortest suitable time.
Elocon Ointment may be prescribed for children 2 years of age and older, but it should be used only under the supervision of a healthcare provider. Children can absorb proportionally more topical corticosteroid through their skin, so careful dosing and limited treatment duration are important.
Elocon Ointment should generally not be used on the face unless your healthcare provider specifically tells you to. The skin on the face is thinner and more sensitive, which can increase the risk of side effects such as skin thinning, irritation, or visible blood vessels.
Some people may notice improvement in itching, redness, or inflammation within a few days. The exact response depends on the skin condition and how severe it is. If your skin does not improve within about 2 weeks, or if it becomes worse, contact your healthcare provider.
Elocon Ointment does not treat bacterial, fungal, or viral skin infections. Because corticosteroids reduce inflammation, they may sometimes hide the symptoms of an infection or allow it to become worse. If the area is infected, your healthcare provider may recommend another treatment along with or instead of Elocon.
Store Elocon Ointment at room temperature, away from excessive heat and moisture. Keep the tube tightly closed when not in use. Do not freeze the medication, and keep it out of the reach of children and pets.
If you forget to apply Elocon Ointment, use it when you remember unless it is almost time for your next scheduled application. If your next application is due soon, skip the missed one and return to your normal schedule. Do not apply extra ointment to make up for a missed application.
