More Information

How long can I safely use Halox?

Maximum continuous use is 2 weeks due to its super-potent strength. Using it longer can cause skin thinning, stretch marks, or systemic absorption. Your doctor may prescribe treatment cycles with breaks in between for chronic conditions.

Can I use Halox on my face?

Generally no. Facial skin is thinner and more prone to side effects from super-potent steroids. Unless specifically prescribed for facial use, apply only to body areas. Your doctor may recommend a milder steroid for facial conditions.

What happens if I suddenly stop using Halox?

Abrupt discontinuation after prolonged use can cause rebound flare-ups. Your doctor may recommend tapering by reducing frequency or switching to a less potent steroid. Always follow your prescribed discontinuation plan.

Are there any long-term side effects?

Extended use can cause skin atrophy (thinning), telangiectasia (visible blood vessels), or hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal suppression. This is why Halox is restricted to short-term use under medical supervision. Report any skin changes to your doctor.
