Halobetasol Propionate Cream
What is halobetasol topical?
Halobetasol is a highly potent steroid that helps reduce inflammation in the body.
Halobetasol topical (for the skin) is used to treat inflammation and itching caused by plaque psoriasis or skin conditions that respond to steroid medication.
Halobetasol topical may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
Important Information
Follow all directions on your medicine label and package. Tell each of your healthcare providers about all your medical conditions, allergies, and all medicines you use.
Before taking this medicine
You should not use halobetasol if you are allergic to it.
Tell your doctor if you have ever had:
- any type of skin infection;
- a skin reaction to any steroid medicine;
- liver disease; or
- an adrenal gland disorder.
Steroid medicines can increase the glucose (sugar) levels in your blood or urine. Tell your doctor if you have diabetes.
It is not known whether halobetasol topical will harm an unborn baby. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant.
It may not be safe to breastfeed while using this medicine. Ask your doctor about any risk. If you apply halobetasol to your chest, avoid areas that may come into contact with the baby's mouth.
Halobetasol topical is not approved for use by anyone younger than 12 years old. Some brands or forms of this medicine are for use only in adults 18 and over.
Children can absorb larger amounts of this medicine through the skin and may be more likely to have side effects.
How should I use halobetasol topical?
Follow all directions on your prescription label and read all medication guides or instruction sheets. Use the medicine exactly as directed.
Do not take by mouth. Topical medicine is for use only on the skin. Do not use on open wounds or on sunburned, windburned, dry, or irritated skin. Rinse with water if this medicine gets in your eyes or mouth.
Wash your hands before and after using halobetasol, unless you are using this medicine to treat the skin on your hands.
Apply a thin layer of medicine to the affected skin and rub it in gently. Do not apply this medicine over a large area of skin unless your doctor has told you to.
Do not cover the treated skin area with a bandage or other covering unless your doctor tells you to. Covering treated areas can increase the amount of medicine absorbed through your skin and may cause harmful effects.
If you are treating the diaper area, do not use plastic pants or tight-fitting diapers.
This medicine is for short-term use only (2 weeks, or up to 8 weeks for psoriasis). Follow your doctor's dosing instructions very carefully.
If you use halobetasol to treat plaque psoriasis, you should stop using the medicine once your skin symptoms are controlled.
Call your doctor if your symptoms do not improve, or if they get worse.
You should not stop using halobetasol suddenly. Follow your doctor's instructions about tapering your dose.
Store at room temperature away from moisture and heat. Do not freeze.
What happens if I miss a dose?
Apply the medicine as soon as you can, but skip the missed dose if it is almost time for your next dose. Do not apply two doses at one time.
What should I avoid while using halobetasol topical?
Avoid applying halobetasol topical to your face, scalp, underarms, or groin area.
Do not use halobetasol topical to treat any skin condition that has not been checked by your doctor.
Avoid using other topical steroid medications on the areas you treat with halobetasol unless your doctor tells you to.
