In addition, this cream can also help to heal cracked or broken skin. Adults and children can use Elocon Cream safely and it is typically well-tolerated with few side effects.
If you’re looking for an effective way to relieve the symptoms of psoriasis or dermatitis, then consider trying Elocon Cream. This potent corticosteroid cream can help to reduce redness, itchiness, and swelling associated with these conditions and can also help to heal cracked or broken skin.

Elocon
How To Use
How to use Elocon
Always use Elocon exactly as your doctor has told you. Check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure.
Use in children
Elocon is not recommended for children under the age of 2.
How much to use
Usually for adults and children aged 2 and above, a thin layer of Elocon Cream should be gently rubbed into the affected area of skin once a day.
Before using Elocon
You should always follow these instructions when using Elocon:
- Do not use the cream on your face for more than 5 days.
- Do not apply the cream to children, on any part of their body, for more than 5 days.
- Do not put the cream under your child’s nappy, as this makes it easier for the active drug to pass through the skin and possibly cause some unwanted effects.
- You should check with your doctor before covering the treated areas with a bandage or plaster. Treated areas on the face or in children should not be covered with a bandage or plaster.
- You should not use a large amount of cream on large areas of the body for a long time (for example every day for many weeks or months).
- Do not use in or around your eyes, including eye-lids.
If you use more Elocon than you should
If you (or somebody else) accidentally swallow the cream, it should not produce any problems. However, if you are worried, you should see your doctor.
If you use the cream more often than you should, or on large areas of the body, it can affect some of your hormones. In children, this may affect their growth and development.
If you have not used the cream as you were told to do and have used it too often and/or for a long time, you should tell your doctor.
If you forget to use Elocon
If you forget to use your cream at the right time, use it as soon as you remember, then carry on as before.
If you stop using Elocon
If you have been using Elocon for a long time and your skin problem seems to have got better, you should not suddenly stop using the cream. If you do, you may find that your skin becomes red and you may notice stinging or burning. To avoid this, you should speak to your doctor who will gradually reduce how often you need to use the cream until you stop treatment altogether.
Product Details
What you need to know before you use Elocon
Do not use Elocon if you have any of the following:
- an allergy (hypersensitivity) to mometasone furoate, any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6) or to other similar medicines.
- any other skin problems as it could make them worse especially:
- rosacea (a skin condition affecting the face)
- acne
- skin atrophy (thinning of the skin)
- dermatitis around the mouth
- genital itching
- nappy rash
- cold sores
- chickenpox
- shingles
- warts
- ulcerated skin
- wounds
- other skin infections
Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure.
Warnings and Precautions
Contact your doctor if your psoriasis gets worse or you get raised bumps filled with pus under your skin.
Contact your doctor immediately if you experience blurred vision or other visual disturbances.
If your skin becomes irritated or sensitive after using Elocon, you should stop using it and tell your doctor.
If you think that you have developed an infection on your skin while using Elocon, you should tell your doctor.
Side effects that may happen with inhaled or oral corticosteroids may also occur with corticosteroids used on the skin, especially in infants and children.
If you use more than the correct amount of cream and/or use it for longer than is recommended, it can affect the levels of certain hormones in the body, particularly in infants and children.
In adults the changes in hormone levels may lead rarely to puffiness or rounding of the face, weakness, tiredness, and dizziness when standing or sitting down.
Do not smoke or go near naked flames – risk of severe burns. Fabric (clothing, bedding, dressings etc) that has been in contact with this product burns more easily and is a serious fire hazard. Washing clothing and bedding may reduce product build-up but not totally remove it.
If there is a worsening of your condition during use consult your prescriber – you may be experiencing an allergic reaction, have an infection or your condition requires a different treatment.
If you experience a recurrence of your condition shortly after stopping treatment, within 2 weeks, do not restart using the cream without consulting your prescriber unless your prescriber has previously advised you to do so. If your condition has resolved and on recurrence the redness extends beyond the initial treatment area and you experience a burning sensation, please seek medical advice before restarting treatment.
Children
If more than the correct amount of cream is used and/or it is used for longer than is recommended, it can affect the child’s hormones. This may lead to:
- Delayed growth and development
- A moon face or rounding of the face
Other medicines and Elocon
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are using, have recently used or might use any other medicines.
Pregnancy, breast-feeding and fertility
You should tell your doctor if you are pregnant or breast-feeding, before you start using Elocon.
