Use Clonate Ointment following these steps:

Clonate Ointment is applied topically.

Clonate Ointment contains clobetasol propionate (0.05 %), which works on your body in the following ways:

• Anti-Inflammatory Action: Clobetasol propionate acts as a powerful anti-inflammatory agent. This means it reduces the redness, swelling, and itching that can occur with certain skin problems.
• Inhibition of Immune Response: Clobetasol propionate works by suppressing the immune system's response to a skin condition. This helps to limit the production of chemicals that cause inflammation and lead to symptoms such as redness and itching.
• Vasoconstrictive Property: The medicine constricts blood vessels in the skin area where it's applied. This action helps reduce swelling and inflammation.

Remember, this ointment should be applied strictly according to your doctor's instructions.

• Keep Clonate Ointment in a dry, cool place where the temperature stays below 25°C. Do not freeze.
• Avoid exposing it to excessive light or moisture.
• Ensure it is out of the reach and sight of children.
• Check the expiry date before using, and do not use if the product is past its expiry date.

• If you are using Clonate Ointment for managing a skin condition like psoriasis, ensure you stay hydrated. Drinking ample water can help keep your skin moisturised from within.
• Reduce the intake of foods that may cause inflammation, such as processed foods and those rich in trans fats, as they might worsen skin conditions.
