This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Clean and dry the affected area and apply the cream. Wash your hands after applying unless hands are the affected area.

Cortiple 1% Cream is a steroid medicine which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers that make the skin red, swollen and itchy.

Cortiple 1% Cream is used to treat the redness, swelling, itching, and discomfort of eczema. It should be applied to the affected areas as a thin film two or three times daily or as advised by your doctor. Don't use it more often or for longer than advised by your doctor. Don't cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor as this may increase the risk of side effects. If you think the area of skin you are treating has become infected you should stop using Cortiple 1% Cream and consult your doctor.
