About Eumosone Cream 15 gm

Eumosone Cream 15 gm belongs to a class of dermatological preparations called topical corticosteroids primarily used to treat swelling, itching redness, and irritation caused due to certain skin problems such as dermatitis (itchy, swelling of the skin), eczema (itchy, cracked, swollen, or rough skin) and psoriasis (scales and itchy, dry patches). Skin irritation occurs when an allergic reaction releases several substances that widen blood vessels, causing itching, redness, pain, and swelling in the affected area.

Eumosone Cream 15 gm contains 'Clobetasone' that works by acting inside skin cells inhibiting the release of certain chemical messengers responsible for causing redness, itching, and swelling. When the skin reacts to any allergens, such chemicals are released normally. Thus, Eumosone Cream 15 gm treats skin allergies like allergic dermatitis, eczema, and psoriasis. 

Use Eumosone Cream 15 gm as prescribed. Eumosone Cream 15 gm is for external use only. Avoid contact of Eumosone Cream 15 gm with nose, mouth, or eyes.
