Clonate Ointment is a topical medicine, which means it is applied externally on the skin. It is not meant to be taken orally or internally.

The active ingredient in Clonate Ointment is clobetasol. Clobetasol is a corticosteroid that works by reducing inflammation in the skin.

• Clobetasol binds to specific receptors in the skin cells.
• This binding process inhibits the production of certain chemicals called prostaglandins.
• Prostaglandins are responsible for triggering inflammation and immune responses in the body.
• By reducing the production of prostaglandins, clobetasol reduces inflammation and associated symptoms like redness and swelling.
• It also helps alleviate itching by suppressing the release of histamine, which is responsible for itchiness.
• Clobetasol also has vasoconstrictive properties, meaning it narrows blood vessels in the affected area to reduce redness.

• Store Clonate Ointment in a cool, dry place.
• Protect the ointment from light and moisture.
• Keep it out of reach and sight of children.
• Use the ointment before the expiry date mentioned on the packaging.

• Maintain good hygiene practices to prevent skin infections.
• Avoid triggers that worsen your skin condition, such as harsh soaps or allergens.
• Moisturize your skin regularly to keep it hydrated.
• Follow a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to support overall skin health.
• Practice stress management techniques, as stress can aggravate certain skin conditions.

• Wear loose-fitting, breathable clothing to promote air circulation around affected areas.
