Clobetasone Butyrate 0.05% is prescribed for treating inflammation, redness, swelling, and itching caused by the following skin conditions:
- Dermatitis: A skin condition characterized by inflammation, redness, and itchiness.
- Eczema: A condition involving dry, cracked, itchy, and inflamed skin.
- Psoriasis: A chronic skin condition marked by scaly, itchy, and dry patches.
Ezex Ointment is effective in treating:
- Dermatitis: Allergic or irritant inflammation causing redness and swelling.
- Eczema: Itchy, dry, and cracked skin conditions.
- Psoriasis: Scaly, itchy patches of skin.
It works by:
- Inhibiting the release of chemical messengers (like prostaglandins and histamines) responsible for allergic reactions and inflammation.
- Preventing redness, itching, and swelling associated with skin allergies.
- Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area as prescribed.
- Do not apply to the nose, mouth, or eyes. In case of accidental contact, rinse thoroughly with water.
- Follow your doctor’s instructions (typically once or twice daily).
- Wash your hands after use, or wear disposable gloves if applying the cream for someone else.
- Do not ingest. If swallowed accidentally, rinse your mouth thoroughly and seek medical attention.
- Consult a doctor before use, as steroids may affect fetal or infant health.
- Avoid applying in these areas unless specifically directed by your doctor.
- Avoid getting the cream into your eyes, as repeated exposure may lead to glaucoma or cataracts.
- Fabrics like clothes, bedding, or dressings that come in contact with Ezex Ointment can catch fire easily. Keep away from flames or smoking.

- Acne or rosacea (redness and bumps on the face).
- Chronic leg ulcers.
- Infected skin or untreated bacterial, viral, or fungal infections.
- Non-inflamed itchy skin.
