What should I know about Dermatop Emollient Cream before using it?

Before using Dermatop Emollient Cream, you should know some safety information about using this medication. It's important to use Dermatop Emollient Cream exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Because it's a topical corticosteroid, Dermatop Emollient Cream may be absorbed by the skin and can cause side effects throughout the body. To reduce the risk for negative side effects, only use a small amount each time, and only use it for as long as your doctor recommends. Children are more likely to absorb more of this medication, which can lead to serious side effects like growth delays. Because of this, Dermatop Emollient Cream isn't recommended for children, especially children under 1 year old.
