Clomic-S3% Lotion
Uses of Clomic-S3% Lotion
What is it prescribed for?
Psoriasis is
a chronic (long-term) autoimmune condition
(your immune system malfunctions and attacks healthy cells of your body) that
causes your cells to multiply faster than normal. This causes a buildup of skin
cells, resulting in scaling on your skin’s surface. The most characteristic
symptom is the presence of a skin rash with red, itchy, scaly patches (usually
on your knees, elbows, and scalp). Clomic-S3% Lotion is used in the treatment
of psoriasis.
Eczema, which is also called atopic dermatitis, is a
condition that causes your skin to become dry, red, and itchy (usually on your
arms and behind the knees). It is common in children, usually develops in early
childhood, and is more common in people who have a family history of this
condition. Clomic-S3% Lotion is used in the treatment of eczema.

Description
Clomic-S3% Lotion is a combination of Clobetasol and
Salicylic Acid. This medicine is used to treat skin conditions such as
psoriasis (a condition where the skin cells build up, resulting in dry patches)
and eczema (dry, red, itchy, and bumpy skin that causes skin irritation).
Clomic-S3% Lotion contains Clobetasol which prevents the formation of certain
chemical substances in your body that are responsible for redness, swelling,
and itching. This medication causes itching and peeling of the outer layer of
the skin, thus allowing Clobetasol to penetrate effectively. Clomic-S3% Lotion
may cause burning, itching, irritation, and dryness of your skin. Consult your
doctor if these symptoms persist or worsen. Clomic-S3% Lotion should be applied
externally to the affected part of your skin as directed by your doctor.
Continue using this medicine for the prescribed duration to avoid a flare-up of
your symptoms. Clomic-S3% Lotion should be avoided if you are allergic to it.
This medicine is not recommended for use in children below 12 years of age. If
you are pregnant or breastfeeding or are planning a pregnancy, consult your
doctor before using this medication.
