Question 8

can children use clobex?

Accepted Answer

Clobex/children: It is safe to use in kids 12 and older.  Under age 12, it is a pretty hefty steroid to use for a kid.  It is a steroid, and a fairly potent one at that.  Kids can absorb it through their skin and it can then affect them as if they ingested it.  I would use a lower potency steroid on a kid under 12, although there are occasions when a stronger one is needed - close monitoring is then needed as well

Question 9
