Trimovate
Trimovate is anti-inflammatory skin cream. The medicine consists of three active ingredients:
- Chlobetasone, an adrenal hormone that suppresses redness and swelling;
- Oxytetracycline, an antibiotic that kills bacteria;
- Nystatin, a fungicide.
It is a topical steroid indicated to reduce the redness and itching of certain skin problems. (Not to be confused with "anabolic" steroids misused by some bodybuilders and administered in the form of tablets or injections). Apply the cream to a clean, dry area on the skin. Wash your hands immediately after application. If symptoms have not improved after seven days, you should see a doctor. Apply the medication to your face only if your doctor has told you to, and then only for as short a time as possible. The facial skin is relatively thin, making it extremely sensitive to side effects. Make sure that the cream does not come into contact with the eyes or mucous membranes.

Topical steroids reduce the redness and itching of certain skin problems. (Not to be confused with "anabolic" steroids misused by some bodybuilders and administered in the form of tablets or injections). Always on prescription Trimovate cream is indicated for the treatment of eczema and dermatitis of all types.
The active ingredient in this Ezcema and psoriasis medication, Chlobetasone butyrate, is a corticosteroid whose anti-inflammatory action is moderately strong; thus, it is classified in Group 3 of the European Community list of corticosteroids for cutaneous use. It has a very wide margin of safety. Under conditions that predispose to maximum percutaneous absorption, Chlobetasone butyrate has a minimal effect on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal cortical axis.
Clinical pharmacology studies carried out in animals and man have revealed the particularly high therapeutic index of this drug; In addition to good anti-inflammatory activity, a very low incidence of local and systemic side effects is observed, compared to other corticosteroids.
Trimovate cream is used to treat inflamed skin. Inflammation of the skin is often caused by bacteria or fungi, or a combination of these. Trimovate kills different types of bacteria and fungi, effectively treating the cause of the problem. Trimovate cream ensures that the skin is less red and swollen and also reduces symptoms such as pain and itching. This medication is increasingly prescribed for skin rashes, certain forms of acne, and infected eczema.
Follow these instructions unless your doctor has given you different directions. Remember to take your medicine. Your doctor will indicate the duration of your treatment with Trimovate cream. The usual dose is an application of a small amount of Trimovate cream on the affected area up to four times a day until there are an improvement and the application frequency. After washing your hands, apply the correct amount of cream to the affected areas of the skin until its disappearance. Unless used for treating hands, wash them again after applying the cream. Anyone who helps apply the cream should do the same or use disposable plastic gloves.
If in doubt, consult a doctor or pharmacist.

Warnings and precautions
Long-term continued topical corticosteroid therapy in children and infants should be avoided whenever possible, as adrenal suppression may occur even without occlusion. In infants, the diaper can act as an occlusive dressing and increase absorption.
If this antibacterial medication is applied to the eyelids, special care should be taken so that the preparation does not penetrate the eyes, as it could cause glaucoma.
As with all corticosteroids, prolonged application to the face is not recommended.
Appropriate antimicrobial therapy should be used each time inflammatory lesions that have become infected are treated. Any extension of infection requires the withdrawal of topical corticosteroid therapy and systemic administration of antimicrobial agents.
Precautions
In infants and children, long-term treatment with topical corticosteroids should be avoided whenever possible, since adrenal suppression can occur even without occlusion.
In infants, the diaper can act as an occlusive patch and increase absorption. As with all corticosteroids, its application for prolonged periods on the face is not recommended.
If applied to the eyelids, care must be taken that the preparation does not enter the eyes, as glaucoma may occur. Whenever an inflammatory lesion has become infected, appropriate antimicrobial therapy should be indicated.
Any extension of infection requires discontinuation of topical steroid therapy and systemic antimicrobial therapy should be instituted. The bacterial infection is stimulated by heat, and humidity conditions induced by the occlusive bandage, so the skin should be cleaned before applying a new bandage.
