Expert advice for Ketoconazole + Clobetasone
- Be cautious and avoid applying Ketoconazole + Clobetasone to sensitive areas like the eyes, mouth, or any open wounds.
- Use the medicine consistently and for the full duration prescribed, even if symptoms improve before the treatment period ends. This helps prevent recurrence of the infection.
- Unless directed by your doctor, avoid covering the treated area with airtight dressings, as this can increase the risk of side effects.
- Let your doctor know if you have any other skin conditions or are using other topical medications to avoid potential interactions.
- Do not use more than the prescribed amount. Overuse can lead to potential side effects such as thinning of the skin or increased risk of systemic absorption.
