Precautions
Avoid use in patients with known hypersensitivity to clobetasol propionate, miconazole nitrate, neomycin sulphate, or any other component of the cream.
Avoid using over large areas of the skin for extended periods unless directed by a healthcare provider to prevent systemic absorption and side effects.
Caution in sensitive areas: Use cautiously on the face, eyes, or genital areas to prevent irritation.

Prolonged use or use on large areas may lead to side effects such as skin thinning, fungal resistance, or bacterial resistance.
