Introduction to TENOVATE CREAM
TENOVATE: Very Potent Topical Corticosteroid for Inflammatory Skin Disorders
TENOVATE CREAM contains Clobetasol Propionate 0.05% w/w, a very potent topical corticosteroid belonging to the dermatological corticosteroid drug class. It is prescribed for the treatment of steroid-responsive inflammatory skin disorders, including psoriasis (excluding widespread plaque psoriasis), eczema, lichen planus, discoid lupus erythematosus, and other severe dermatoses that do not respond adequately to less potent topical corticosteroids.
Clobetasol Propionate suppresses inflammatory responses in the skin, helping relieve redness, itching, swelling, irritation, and discomfort. Because it is a very potent steroid, it should be used only for the prescribed duration under the supervision of a healthcare professional.
TENOVATE CREAM is supplied as 1 tube containing 15g and is intended for external topical application only.
