Should you miss an application of Hobs 0.05% Cream, resume treatment at your earliest convenience. If uncertain, seek medical advice.
Applying Hobs 0.05% Cream to damaged skin is not recommended.

Furthermore, steroid use can induce skin thinning, possibly exacerbating the underlying problem.
Hobs 0.05% Cream can occasionally produce localized skin reactions such as burning, itching, irritation, dryness, or reduced pigmentation, particularly in patients with sensitive skin. Prior to commencing treatment, disclosing any history of allergies or adverse reactions to your physician is crucial. The formulation's components may, in some instances, be the underlying cause of such reactions. Should any reaction occur, discontinue use immediately and contact your doctor.
