FAQ

How do you know if Temovate cream is working?

Temovate cream is absorbed into your skin to reduce pain and itching associated with plaque psoriasis and other skin conditions. Symptoms should improve within 2 weeks of treatment. Follow all your healthcare provider’s instructions for the best therapeutic results and tell them if you do not see an improvement after two weeks.

What happens if you use Temovate cream too much?

If you apply Temovate cream in larger amounts than needed or for longer than prescribed by your healthcare provider, you may absorb too much of the medication.
