Long-term use may cause thinning of the skin, pigmentation changes, or side effects resembling acne, so caution is advised. This medication can be absorbed systemically through the skin, potentially leading to side effects such as pituitary or adrenal suppression, Cushing's syndrome, and increased blood sugar; therefore, regular monitoring is necessary during extensive or prolonged use. Caution is also needed when using around the eyes, as there may be risks of increased intraocular pressure or glaucoma. Patients with impaired kidney function or hearing problems should avoid long-term use of this medication. Strict adherence to the prescribed dosage and administration is essential during use, especially in children, where supervision by a guardian is necessary. This medication has not been established as safe for use in pregnant or nursing women, so it should be avoided in large quantities or for long periods, and used cautiously if necessary under professional judgment. Children may be more sensitive to side effects than adults, so it is important to treat with the minimum effective dose. Environments similar to occlusive dressings, such as diapers, can increase the absorption of the medication and heighten the risk of side effects, so caution should be exercised. Long-term or excessive use of this medication may lead to systemic side effects such as adrenal insufficiency or Cushing's syndrome, so gradual reduction in dosage before discontinuation is necessary. Patients with psoriasis should use caution, as symptoms may worsen with prolonged extensive use. This medication can irritate the eyes and mucous membranes, so it should not be used for ophthalmic purposes, and should also be avoided for cosmetic purposes or after shaving. Occlusive dressings should only be used under the supervision of a physician, and should be applied after cleaning the affected area to minimize the risk of infection.
