Temovate Cream Description

Temovate Cream is a potent topical steroid a doctor may prescribe to treat; flare-ups of psoriasis or eczema, itchy bug bites or stings, painful rashes from a run-in with poison ivy, or other skin conditions that result in inflammation and painful itching. All of the skin reactions people experience are due to your immune system alerting chemicals in your body that something has just occurred and needs to be dealt with so healing can begin. Unfortunately, it is the immune response that causes most of the symptoms.

Use Temovate Cream to Relieve Symptoms of Skin Irritations

Once Temovate Cream is applied as directed, it is absorbed into your skin cells and works to suppress an immune response by interfering with the production of inflammatory chemicals the immune system has signaled to locate the threat or injury. Inflammation is your body’s way of healing, but can be self perpetuating as inflammation can cause more inflammation.

Other chemicals can cause blood vessels to expand and leak fluid into the tissues surrounding the injured area as a way to minimize the threat and carry it away. The actions of Temovate Cream or generic Clobetasol Propionate will reduce the inflammation and swelling and provide pain relief and eliminate the need to scratch the area. The generic alternative is not manufactured by the company that makes the brand product.

Conditions Treated by Temovate Cream

Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease that can flare-up at any time. Some individuals have a glitch in their immune system that causes an over-reaction to something benign and your own tissues or organs come under attack. In the case of psoriasis, the skin cell cycle is unbalanced and new skin cells are being produced and are emerging faster than the old skin cells can fall or slough off. This results in an accumulation of skin cells on and just underneath the skin that builds up into raised, scaly patches.

Before Temovate Cream is Prescribed to You

Discuss with a doctor any possible risks involved with applying Temovate Cream while pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or when breast feeding. Explain other medical conditions or allergies with your doctor and list current OTC or prescription drugs you take or use, including herbal remedies and dietary or vitamin supplements. This will help your doctor determine if it is safe for you to buy Temovate Cream.

Follow Instructions for Your Own Safety and the Best Results

Do not apply Temovate Cream for longer than your doctor has recommended. If after 2 weeks there is no improvement in your skin, visit the doctor again for other possible treatment options. Temovate Cream should not be applied to areas of broken skin from scratching and be on the lookout for signs of an infection that may require attention from a doctor. Do not bandage or wrap the treated area unless told otherwise by your doctor.
