Temovate Cream contains the active ingredient clobetasol propionate. It is a prescription-strength topical corticosteroid used to treat certain inflammatory skin conditions.

Dermatitis and Eczema

Temovate Cream may be used for corticosteroid-responsive skin conditions, including certain forms of dermatitis and eczema.

These conditions can cause symptoms such as:

  • Redness
  • Swelling
  • Itching
  • Dryness
  • Irritation

Temovate helps reduce inflammation in the skin, which can relieve these symptoms.

Contact Dermatitis

Temovate Cream may also be prescribed for some cases of contact dermatitis, which occurs when the skin reacts to an irritant or allergen.

Treatment can help reduce redness, itching, swelling, and discomfort while the skin heals.

Plaque Psoriasis

Temovate Cream may be used to treat plaque psoriasis, a condition that causes thick, raised, scaly patches of skin.

By reducing inflammation and slowing the inflammatory response in the skin, Temovate can help improve redness, scaling, itching, and discomfort.

How Temovate Cream Works

Clobetasol belongs to a group of medications called topical corticosteroids.

It is considered a super-high-potency corticosteroid, meaning it is one of the strongest topical steroids available.

Temovate works by reducing the release and activity of inflammatory substances in the skin.

This helps decrease:

  • Redness
  • Swelling
  • Itching
  • Irritation

Short-Term Treatment

Because Temovate is a very potent corticosteroid, it is generally intended for short-term use.

Using it for too long, over large areas of skin, or under airtight coverings can increase the amount of medication absorbed into the body and raise the risk of side effects.

Your healthcare provider will determine how long you should use Temovate based on the condition being treated and how your skin responds.

What Temovate Does Not Treat

Temovate does not treat the underlying cause of every rash or skin problem.

It should not be used for untreated bacterial, fungal, or viral skin infections unless your healthcare provider specifically recommends it as part of your treatment plan.

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

Apply a thin layer of Temovate Cream to the affected area of skin once or twice daily, or exactly as directed by your healthcare provider.

Use only enough cream to lightly cover the affected skin, then gently rub it in until it is absorbed.

Temovate is for external use on the skin only.

Before Applying the Cream

Wash and dry your hands and gently clean and dry the affected area before applying Temovate.

After applying the medication, wash your hands again unless your hands are the area being treated.

Avoid getting the cream in your eyes, mouth, or other sensitive areas.

Areas to Avoid

Do not apply Temovate to the:

  • Face
  • Groin
  • Underarms

unless your healthcare provider specifically tells you to use it there.

These areas can absorb corticosteroids more easily and may be more sensitive to side effects.

Do Not Cover the Treated Area

Do not cover the treated skin with a bandage, plastic wrap, or other airtight dressing unless your healthcare provider specifically recommends it.

Covering the area can increase the amount of clobetasol absorbed through the skin and raise the risk of side effects.

How Long Should Temovate Be Used?

Temovate is a very potent topical corticosteroid and is generally intended for short-term treatment.

Treatment with Temovate Cream is usually limited to 2 consecutive weeks, unless your healthcare provider gives you different instructions.

Using it for longer periods, over large areas, or in excessive amounts can increase the risk of skin thinning and systemic corticosteroid effects.

What to Do If You Miss a Dose

If you miss an application, apply Temovate when you remember.

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

Do not apply extra cream or use it more often to make up for a missed dose.

Use in Children

Clobetasol is a very potent corticosteroid, and children may absorb proportionally larger amounts through the skin.

Use in children should only occur under the guidance of a healthcare provider, and some Temovate formulations are not recommended for younger children.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding

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

Clobetasol should be used during pregnancy only when the expected benefit outweighs the potential risk.

If you are breastfeeding, avoid applying Temovate to the breast or nipple area where an infant could come into direct contact with the medication.

Follow Your Healthcare Provider’s Instructions

Use Temovate exactly as prescribed and only on the areas of skin your healthcare provider has told you to treat.

Do not use larger amounts, apply it more frequently, or continue treatment longer than recommended.

Contact your healthcare provider if your skin condition does not improve, becomes worse, or develops signs of infection.

Avoid Certain Areas of the Body

Temovate Cream should generally not be used on the face, groin, or underarms unless your healthcare provider specifically tells you to apply it there.

These areas are more sensitive and can absorb corticosteroids more easily, which may increase the risk of side effects.

Limit How Long You Use Temovate

Temovate is a super-high-potency corticosteroid, so it is usually intended for short-term treatment.

For many corticosteroid-responsive skin conditions, treatment should generally be limited to 2 consecutive weeks, and the total amount used should not exceed 50 grams per week.

Using clobetasol for too long, over large areas, or under airtight coverings can increase the risk of serious side effects.

Skin Thinning and Local Side Effects

Temovate may cause skin-related side effects, especially if it is used for a long time.

Possible effects may include:

  • Burning or stinging
  • Itching
  • Irritation
  • Redness
  • Skin thinning
  • Visible small blood vessels
  • Changes in skin texture

Contact your healthcare provider if these effects become severe or do not improve.

Broken or Infected Skin

Do not apply Temovate to untreated infected skin unless your healthcare provider specifically recommends it.

Topical corticosteroids can sometimes make certain bacterial, fungal, or viral skin infections more difficult to control.

Contact your healthcare provider if the treated area becomes increasingly painful, swollen, warm, or develops pus or other signs of infection.

Adrenal Suppression

Because clobetasol is very potent, some of the medication can be absorbed through the skin and affect the body’s natural production of corticosteroid hormones.

This can lead to hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis suppression, especially when Temovate is used over large areas, under occlusive dressings, or for longer than recommended.

Use only the amount prescribed and do not continue treatment longer than directed.

Avoid Contact With the Eyes

Keep Temovate away from your eyes.

If corticosteroid medication repeatedly gets into or around the eyes, it may increase the risk of eye problems such as glaucoma or cataracts.

If Temovate accidentally gets into your eyes, rinse them thoroughly with water and contact your healthcare provider if irritation or vision changes occur.

Allergy to Clobetasol

Do not use Temovate if you have had an allergic reaction to clobetasol propionate or any ingredient in the cream.

Seek immediate medical attention if you develop:

  • Hives
  • Severe rash
  • Swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat
  • Difficulty breathing or swallowing

Use in Children

Children may absorb a greater amount of topical corticosteroid relative to their body size and may therefore be more sensitive to side effects.

For standard clobetasol propionate cream 0.05%, use in children younger than 12 years is generally not recommended.

Pregnancy

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

Clobetasol should be used during pregnancy only when your healthcare provider determines that the expected benefit outweighs the potential risk.

Use the smallest amount needed for the shortest appropriate period.

Breastfeeding

Tell your healthcare provider if you are breastfeeding.

Avoid applying Temovate to the breast or nipple area where an infant could come into direct contact with the medication.

Your healthcare provider can help determine whether Temovate is appropriate while breastfeeding.

Follow Your Healthcare Provider’s Instructions

Use Temovate only on the areas of skin prescribed and for the recommended amount of time.

Do not use more cream, apply it more often, or extend treatment on your own.

If your skin condition does not improve within the expected treatment period or becomes worse, contact your healthcare provider for reassessment.

How should Temovate Cream be stored?

Store Temovate Cream at room temperature, away from excessive heat, direct light, and moisture. Keep the tube tightly closed when not in use and store it out of the reach of children and pets.

Can Temovate Cream be used during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?

Talk with your healthcare provider before using Temovate Cream if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Because clobetasol is a very potent corticosteroid, your healthcare provider will consider whether the expected benefits outweigh the potential risks. If you are breastfeeding, avoid applying Temovate to the breast or nipple area where your baby could come into direct contact with the medication.

How long should Temovate Cream be used?

Temovate Cream is generally intended for short-term use. For many skin conditions, treatment should not continue for more than 2 consecutive weeks unless your healthcare provider specifically recommends a longer treatment plan. Using Temovate for too long can increase the risk of side effects such as skin thinning and increased absorption of the corticosteroid into the body.

Can Temovate Cream be used on the face?

Temovate Cream should generally not be used on the face unless your healthcare provider specifically tells you to apply it there. The skin on the face is thinner and more sensitive, which can increase the risk of side effects such as skin thinning, irritation, and visible blood vessels. Use Temovate only on the areas of skin your healthcare provider has instructed you to treat.
