Research Notes on Clobetasol Side Effects
The most common side effect of clobetasol include a burning, stinging, itching, or dryness at the application site. The skin may become red after clobetasol application as well, but this should be a temporary effect. If any of these side effects continue after several days, appear to get worse, or if the treated area becomes painful, discontinue use and contact your physician or pharmacist at once.1
