Clobetasol Shampoo Medication Description
Clobetasol shampoo is a topical corticosteroid treatment designed for scalp conditions that cause inflammation and discomfort, such as scalp psoriasis. These conditions often lead to itching, redness, and scaling, which can significantly affect quality of life. Clobetasol works by calming the immune system’s activity in the skin, reducing inflammation and slowing the overproduction of skin cells that contribute to scaling and plaques. The shampoo formulation makes it easy to apply directly to affected areas of the scalp, ensuring effective delivery of medication. It is typically used once daily for a short course, usually up to four weeks, to minimize the risk of side effects associated with long-term steroid use. Because clobetasol is a high-potency corticosteroid, careful adherence to dosing instructions and monitoring by a healthcare provider are essential. -
Clobetasol Shampoo Side Effects
Common side effects of clobetasol shampoo include mild burning, stinging, or irritation at the application site. Some patients may experience dryness or temporary hair changes. Serious but rare risks include thinning of the skin, adrenal gland suppression, and worsening of scalp infections. Warning signs such as severe irritation, signs of infection, or unusual fatigue should be reported to a healthcare provider immediately. Limiting use to the prescribed duration and following application instructions help reduce these risks. -
