Medodermone Dosage/Direction for Use

Apply sparingly to the affected area once or twice daily until improvement occurs. As with other highly-active topical steroid preparations, therapy should be discontinued when control is achieved. In the more responsive conditions this may be within a few days. If a longer course is necessary, it is recommended that treatment should not be continued for more than four weeks without the patient's condition being reviewed. Repeated short courses of Clobetasol may be used to control exacerbations. If continuous steroid treatment is necessary, a less potent preparation should be used.
In very resistant lesions, especially where there is hyperkeratosis, the anti-inflammatory effect of Clobetasol can be enhanced, if necessary, by occluding the treatment area with polythene film. Overnight occlusion only is usually adequate to bring about a satisfactory response. Thereafter improvement can usually be maintained by application without occlusion.
