Diplene AF Cream is a combination of two medicines: Clobetasol and Chlorocresol. Clobetasol is a steroid medicine. It blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy. Chlorocresol is a preservative.

It may take several weeks to show its action. Keep using it as suggested by your doctor. Wash your skin with a mild cleanser and pat it dry before applying Diplene AF Cream. Apply it as a thin layer onto clean, dry, unbroken skin affected by an infection. Avoid contact with your eyes, nose, or mouth. Rinse it off with water if you accidentally get the cream in these areas. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding.
