Stay in the know and be prepared

Eczema affects an estimated 7.2% of adults and 10.7% of children in the US. Nearly half of all cases begin in the first 6 months of life, and 90% occur by age 5.

Signs and symptoms of eczema include:

  • Red to brownish-gray patches called plaques
  • Itching, which may be severe, especially at night
  • Small, raised bumps, which can leak fluid and crust over
  • Thickened, cracked, or scaly skin
  • Raw, sensitive skin from scratching

Though patches can occur anywhere, they most often appear on:

  • Hands and feet
  • Elbows, knees, ankles, and wrists
  • Neck
  • Upper chest

Know your options:

  • Antibiotics
  • Oral antihistamines
  • Oral corticosteroids
  • Corticosteroid creams or ointments

Talk to your doctor to learn more.

For more information about safety and side effects of CLODERM Cream, please see Full Prescribing Information and talk to your doctor.

*Parents of pediatric patients should not use tight-fitting diapers or plastic pants on a child being treated in the diaper area, as these garments may constitute occlusive dressings.
Pediatric patients may demonstrate greater susceptibility to topical corticosteroid-induced HPA axis suppression and Cushing’s syndrome than mature patients because of a larger skin surface area to body weight ratio. Administration of topical corticosteroids to children should be limited to the least amount compatible with an effective therapeutic regimen.

IMPORTANT PATIENT SAFETY INFORMATION

  • CLODERM Cream is for external use only. Avoid contact with the eyes.
  • Do not bandage or wrap the treated area unless directed by your healthcare provider.
  • Pediatric patients: if using CLODERM Cream in the diaper area of a young child, please contact your healthcare provider before putting a tight-fitting diaper or plastic pants on the child as this may act like a bandage or wrap.
  • Do not use CLODERM Cream if you are allergic to any of the ingredients in CLODERM Cream.
  • If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing please contact your healthcare provider before using CLODERM Cream.

Children may absorb proportionally larger amounts of topical corticosteroids and may be more susceptible to side effects. As with all topical corticosteroids, too much CLODERM Cream passing through your skin can cause your adrenal glands to stop working. Your healthcare provider may do blood tests to check for adrenal gland problems.

The most common side effects of CLODERM Cream include burning, itching, irritation, dryness, inflamed hair follicles (folliculitis), excessive hair growth, acne-like eruptions, and thinning of the skin with prolonged use.

These are not all the possible side effects of CLODERM Cream. For more information, ask your healthcare provider or pharmacist.

You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit http://www.fda.gov/Safety/MedWatch or call 1-800-FDA-1088.
