About Clorega Cream

Clorega Cream is a medicated shampoo used to treat inflammatory and itchy scalp conditions, such as psoriasis. It provides targeted relief when applied directly to the affected scalp areas.

Clorega Cream contains Clobetasol, which reduces swelling, redness, and itching on the scalp by inhibiting the production of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause inflammation.

Some people may experience side effects like inflammation of hair follicles, acne, irritation, or a burning sensation at the application site. These effects are usually temporary and do not require medical attention. However, if they persist or worsen, consult your doctor for guidance.

If you are allergic to Clorega Cream or any other medications, inform your doctor. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your doctor before using Clorega Cream. Avoid contact with the eyes, mucous membranes, or open wounds.

Side effects of Clorega Cream 30 gm
  • Avoid extreme heat or cold, like hot showers or cold winds, to prevent worsening skin discomfort.
  • Cool compresses: To reduce itch, redness, and swelling.
  • Avoid irritants like harsh chemicals or allergens to prevent worsening skin discomfort.
  • If you have severe itching, burning, or blistering seek medical attention.
  • Keep your skin clean by gently washing your face two times daily and after sweating. Choose a mild and non-abrasive cleanser.
  • Use gentle alcohol-free skin care products. Avoid products that might irritate your skin such as exfoliants, astringents and toners.
  • Acne may also occur due to oil in the hair. Thus, if you have oily hair, shampoo more frequently than you do now and keep your hair away from face.
  • Keep your hands off your face as touching face throughout the day might worsen acne. Also, do not pick, squeeze or pop acne as it will prolong the healing process and increase the risk of dark spots and scarring.
  • Avoid tanning by applying a broad spectrum sunscreen and wearing sun-protective clothing when outdoors.
  • Mild hair follicle inflammation often heals on its own without needing treatment.
  • You can apply a warm saltwater or vinegar solution to the affected area with a washcloth, or use over-the-counter antibiotics, oatmeal lotion, or hydrocortisone cream for relief.
  • Avoid making the affected area worse by not shaving, scratching, or wearing tight clothes.
  • Apply a warm compress to the area 3-4 times a day for 15-20 minutes to help speed up healing.
  • Do not scratch, squeeze, or pop any bumps, as this may lead to infection or other problems.
  • If self-care methods fail, consult a doctor for further treatment and advice.
  • Shield your skin from the sun by using sunscreen, seeking shade, and wearing protective clothing.
