Overview Calciset 0.05% Lotion

Dermacalm 0.05% lotion, a topical corticosteroid, treats inflamed, itchy skin conditions. It alleviates swelling, redness, and itching by suppressing inflammation-inducing agents. Apply only externally, as directed by your physician. Clean and dry the affected area before applying a thin layer. Avoid contact with eyes, nose, or mouth; rinse thoroughly with water if contact occurs. Unless advised by your doctor, avoid occlusive dressings. Temporary burning, irritation, redness, swelling, or rash may occur; these usually subside. However, persistent or worsening symptoms warrant medical attention. This medication is unsuitable for pregnant individuals; pregnant or breastfeeding women should seek medical advice before use.
