    USES OF HALOVATE

    • Treats skin rash, eczema, dermatitis and psoriasis

    HOW HALOVATE WORKS

    Halobetasol has anti-inflammatory, antipruritic and vasoconstrictive properties. It works by inducing the production of phospholipase A2 inhibitory proteins, which are responsible for the biosynthesis of the common precursor arachidonic acid and its potent mediators of inflammation such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes. This leads to a reduction in inflammation, itching, and redness associated with skin rash, eczema, dermatitis and psoriasis.

    DIRECTIONS FOR USE

    Apply a thin layer of this medicine to the affected skin once or twice daily, as directed by your physician. It is for external use only. Avoid contact of this medicine with your eyes, ears, nose or mouth. If contact happens, rinse it thoroughly with plenty of water. Do not cover the treated area unless directed by physician. Do not apply this medicine on the face, groin, or in the axillae. This medicine should not be used for more than 2 weeks at a time, as it may result in the risk of HPA axis suppression. If you cannot see any improvement within 2 weeks of therapy, inform your doctor.
