Clobederm-S Lotion 60ml
Price: PKR 246.05
Product Description
Clobederm-S Lotion is a powerful topical medication formulated to provide effective relief from severe skin conditions. It contains a combination of two active ingredients: Clobetasol Propionate, a very strong corticosteroid that reduces inflammation, redness, and itching, and Salicylic Acid, a keratolytic agent that helps to soften and shed the thick, scaly skin associated with conditions like psoriasis.
This dual-action formula makes Clobederm-S Lotion highly effective in treating stubborn dermatoses and hyperkeratotic conditions. The lotion consistency allows for easy application over large or hairy areas of the body. By working to both reduce inflammation and exfoliate thickened skin, it helps to restore a smoother, healthier skin texture and alleviate discomfort.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: What conditions does Clobederm-S Lotion treat? This lotion is primarily prescribed to treat severe inflammatory skin conditions that have not responded to weaker steroid treatments. This includes conditions like psoriasis, chronic eczema, and other hyperkeratotic skin disorders.
Q2: Why should I not use this for a long time? Long-term use of Clobetasol Propionate, a very strong corticosteroid, can lead to serious side effects such as thinning of the skin, stretch marks, and systemic absorption which can affect your body’s adrenal glands. Only use it for the short duration your doctor prescribes.
Q3: Can I use this on my face? No, you should not use Clobederm-S Lotion on your face, groin, or underarms unless your doctor has specifically told you to do so. These areas are more prone to side effects from strong steroids.
Q4: How does Salicylic Acid help? Salicylic Acid acts as a peeling agent. In conditions like psoriasis, skin cells build up too quickly, creating thick scales. The salicylic acid in the lotion helps to soften these scales, making it easier for the skin to shed them and allowing the clobetasol to penetrate more effectively.
