Description
Dermovate Cream is a strong and rapidly effective treatment for inflamed skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis.
What Dermovate Cream is and What it is Used For
Dermovate contains a medicine called clobetasol propionate. It belongs to a group of medicines called steroids. It helps to reduce swelling and irritation. Dermovate is used to help reduce the redness and itchiness of certain skin problems.
These skin problems include:
- Frequently relapsing eczema psoriasis (thickened patches of inflamed, red skin, often covered by silvery scales), excluding widespread plaque psoriasis.
- Lichen planus, a skin disease that causes itchy, reddish-purple, flat-topped bumps on the wrists, forearms or lower legs).
- Discoid lupus erythematosus (a disease of the skin most often affecting the face, ears and scalp causing scarring and increased sensitivity of the affected skin to sunlight).
- Dermatitis and other skin conditions that have not responded to milder steroid creams or intents.
Warning and precautions
Take more precautionary steps if:
- You have previously had an allergic reaction with another steroid.
- You are applying the cream under an airtight dressing, including a child’s nappy. These dressings make it easier for the active ingredient to pass through the skin. It is possible to accidentally end up using too much cream.
- Make sure that the skin is cleansed before a fresh dressing is applied to prevent infections.
- You are applying the cream on broken or damaged skin or within skin folds.
- If you are applying to a large surface area.
- You have psoriasis, your doctor will want to see you more often.
- If you are using for a chronic leg ulcer as you may be at increased risk of local allergic reaction or infection.
- You are applying near eyes or on eyelids, as cataracts or glaucoma may result if the cream repeatedly enters the eye.
- You are applying to thin skin such as the face, as Dermovate may cause skin thinning. Use on the face should be limited to 5 days. Dressings or bandages should not be used on the face where the cream is applied.
-
Children
- Do not use this medicine in children under 1 year of age.
- Avoid continuous treatment for a long period of time in infants and children over 1 year of age, as their skin is thinner than adults and as a result may absorb larger amounts.
- Use on children should not exceed 5 days and reviewed weekly.
- Dressings or bandages should not be used on children where the cream is applied.
-
Other medicines and Dermovate
- Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other medicine, especially if you are taking ritonavir and itraconazole medications.
-
Pregnancy, breast-feeding and fertility
- If you are pregnant or breast-feeding. think you may be pregnant or are planning to have baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine.
- If you do use Dermovate when breast-feeding, do not use it on your breast area to ensure that the baby does not accidentally get Dermovate in their mouth.
-
Dermovate Cream contains propylene glycol, Cetostearyl alcohol and Chlorocres
- Propylene glycol may cause skin irritation.
- Cetostearyl alcohol may cause local skin reactions (eg. contact dermatitis).
- Chlorocresol may cause allergic reactions.
How to Use Dermovate Cream
- You usually apply a thin layer of Dermovate once or twice a day. You can reduce it as your skin begins to get better, or stop when better.
- If you are also using an emollient (moisturizer), allow time for Dermovate to be absorbed into your skin before applying the emollient.
- This cream is for use on your skin only.
- Do not use for more than 4 weeks without talking to your doctor. If you need treatment for a long time, your doctor may decide you need to use a milder cream or ointment.
- If your skin problem worsens or does not improve within 2 to 4 weeks, talk to your doctor.
- Consider the germs that cause infections like the warm and moist conditions under dressings. If you will cover the treated area with a dressing, always clean the skin before putting on a fresh dressing to help prevent infection of the skin beneath the dressing.
- If you are applying the cream on someone else, make sure you wash your hands after use or wear disposable plastic gloves.

Dermovate Cream has been a game changer for my skin condition. It’s incredibly effective at reducing inflammation and redness within just a few days of use. The texture is smooth and absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy residue. I appreciate that it doesn’t have a strong scent, which is a plus for sensitive skin. However, I did experience some dryness after prolonged use, so I recommend applying a moisturizer afterwards. Overall, I highly recommend it for anyone dealing with stubborn skin issues.

Dermovate Cream 25g helped reduce the redness on my face. It’s very effective for stubborn skin conditions but should be used sparingly.
