Yes. Elocon ointment is licensed for the inflammation and itching of psoriasis, excluding widespread plaque psoriasis. A clinician will review your consultation to check it is suitable for you.
Apply a thin film to the affected skin once a day, or as directed by your prescriber.
Elocon must not be used on or near the eyes, including the eyelids, or on facial rosacea or perioral dermatitis. If your prescriber advises using it elsewhere on your face, courses should be limited to 5 days and the area should not be covered.
After long-term use, stopping suddenly can cause a rebound flare with intense redness, stinging and burning. Your prescriber may advise reducing gradually, for example by using it less often before stopping. Speak to your prescriber if your skin flares up within days or weeks of stopping.
