Prolonged or excessive use of this medication may result in serious infections or symptoms of immune suppression, so adherence to the usage duration and dosage is essential. If eczema or dermatitis is accompanied by skin infection, appropriate antibiotics or antifungals should be administered before or concurrently with this medication. As the corticosteroid ingredients used topically may be absorbed into the system and affect hormonal functions, regular examinations may be required when used over extensive areas or with occlusive dressings. Once symptoms improve, discontinuation of use should be done as quickly as possible; if symptoms worsen or do not change, use should stop. Particular caution should be taken when using on the face, neck, genitals, or overlapping areas of skin, as side effects like skin atrophy or erythema may occur.

Pregnant women should limit the duration and area of use with this medication, as prolonged or large-scale use may increase the risk of low birth weight in fetuses. Nursing mothers should use this medication for the shortest possible duration and in minimal quantities, avoiding direct application to the nipple or breast, as there is a possibility of transmission through breast milk. Children are at a higher risk of side effects due to better absorption of the medication in their bodies compared to adults, so prolonged use should be avoided, and it is advisable to monitor their condition weekly during use. The elderly are at a higher risk of side effects, so special caution should be taken in case of large quantities or prolonged use. In case of overdose, symptoms of excess cortisol or adrenal function suppression may appear, so the dosage should be gradually reduced according to the physician's instructions.
