What is Clocortolone Pivalate?
Clocortolone Pivalate is a prescription topical steroid that relieves itching, swelling, and redness due to eczema, psoriasis, allergies, or other skin conditions that respond to steroid treatment. Inflammation-reducing steroids, called corticosteroids, work in three ways to reduce swelling. First, they prevent the body from producing chemicals that cause swelling. Second, they also block the immune response to irritation. Finally, corticosteroids like Clocortolone Pivalate constrict the small blood vessels, resulting in less blood flow to the swollen area. The cumulative effect is to reduce swelling and, as a result, the pain, itching, redness, and general discomfort of steroid-responsive skin conditions.
Clocortolone Pivalate comes as a cream and is applied directly to the affected area.
What are the side effects of Clocortolone Pivalate?
Most side effects of Clocortolone Pivalate occur on the skin where it has been applied and include burning, stinging, itching, irritation, dryness, redness, swollen hair follicles (“hair bumps”), skin discoloration, stretch marks, pimples, crusting and peeling. Topical steroids can be absorbed through the skin into the bloodstream, so system-wide side effects may occur, such as blurred vision, swelling, weight gain, muscle weakness, puffiness, feeling tired, and high blood sugar. Clocortolone Pivalate, when absorbed into the body, can also cause irritability and mood changes. Allergic reactions are rare, but you should discontinue Clocortolone Pivalate if you notice a rash, hives, swelling, or any other sign of an allergic reaction.
