What is Eumovate?

Eumovate is a steroid medication that is used to treat a number of skin conditions including eczema, seborrhoeic dermatitis, and contact dermatitis. It is a type of medicine called a corticosteroid. These help to reduce inflammation in skin conditions.

Ointment and cream versions of Eumovate are available. The active ingredient is clobetasone butyrate. It is considered to be a corticosteroid that is moderately potent.

What is Eumovate used for?

Eumovate reduces the swelling and irritation associated with skin conditions such as:

  • Atopic eczema
  • Allergic contact dermatitis
  • Irritant contact dermatitis
  • Psoriasis
  • Seborrheic dermatitis
  • Thick skin rash due to excessive scratching to relieve itching
  • An eruption of hard nodules on the skin with intense itching
  • Discoid lupus erythematosus
  • Erythroderma characterized by intense and widespread reddening of the skin
  • Severe reactions to insect stings and bites

Eumovate should be used in alongside your usual moisturiser in order to effectively manage you skin condition. 

Please note that topical corticosteroids are not a panacea for eczema and psoriasis, in that it will only help to manage flare-ups and exacerbations. 

How does Eumovate work?

Clobetasone Butyrate 0.05%, a topical corticosteroid, is the active ingredient in Eumovate Cream & Ointment. Eumovate is applied directly to the skin to provide relief. Allergic reaction or over-sensitivity of the skin is the usual cause of skin inflammation. Eumovate works by acting inside the skin cells to reduce the release of chemicals that cause inflammation. This results in the reduction of the swelling, itching, and redness, which help prevent scratching that can further irritate the skin.

Clobetasone acts inside the skin cells, stopping the release of the inflammatory substances. This results in the reduction of the swelling, itching, and redness, and helps in the prevention of scratching that will further irritate the skin.

Eumovate cream is best used for the treatment of weepy or moist skin.

How should Eumovate be applied?

Follow strictly the instructions of the doctor who prescribed Eumovate Cream & Ointment for your medical condition. Also, read and follow the patient information leaflet that comes with your order of the medication.

Eumovate cream & ointment, should be applied evenly and thinly to the affected areas of the skin once or twice a day when you start your treatment course. Eumovate should be used less frequently as soon as the condition begins to improve, or as directed by your doctor.

Do not apply Eumovate Cream & Ointment to infected or broken areas of the skin, unless you are also treating the infection. Don’t apply Eumovate to the facial skin unless your doctor instructs you.  Do not apply Eumovate around the eyes or eyelids.

Avoid getting Eumovate cream, or ointment in your eyes, nose, or mouth. If accidental application occurs, immediately rinse with cold water.

Thoroughly wash your hands before you start after you applied the medication, unless your hands are being treated.

Do not use airtight dressings to cover the area being treated, unless your doctor instructed you to do so. Airtight dressings or bandages will increase the body to absorb more of the medicine, increasing the possibility of side effects. If you are going to use Eumovate Cream & Ointment under dressings as instructed by your doctor, cleanse the skin before the application of Eumovate before applying the medicine under a fresh dressing. Nappies and waterproof pants can act as airtight dressing and increase the body’s absorption of the medicine.

Eumovate lotion is flammable. Do not apply it near naked flames or lit objects. Do not smoke while applying the lotion.

You should continue applying Eumovate Cream & Ointment for as long as what your doctor recommended. Eumovate should not be used for more than once or twice a week at a time when using on a child.

Discontinue the use of the medicine if your skin condition does not improve after two weeks of treatment. Consult your doctor immediately.

Do not use Eumovate Cream & Ointment longer than what is recommended by your doctor.

If the area of the skin being treated with Eumovate Cream & Ointment becomes infection, stop the treatment and see your doctor.
