ELOCON

This medicine is essential for skin conditions like psoriasis, rash, eczema and allergies. Mometasone, one of the chief ingredients of Elocon is a corticosteroid, and is known to reduce swelling, redness and itching. The medicine comes in the form of lotion, ointment and cream. This medication can be applied only on certain areas of the body, and not on groin, face, or underarms. A stinging, burning or itching sensation may occur once the medication is applied, but if the sensation persists then the matter should be reported to the doctor.
