FULL PRESCRIBING INFORMATION
1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE
Clobetasol Propionate Foam is a corticosteroid indicated for treatment of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis of the scalp and mild to moderate plaque psoriasis of non-scalp regions of the body excluding the face and intertriginous areas in patients 12 years and older.
2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
Apply a thin layer of Clobetasol Propionate Foam to the affected skin areas twice daily.
Clobetasol Propionate Foam is a super-high-potency topical corticosteroid; therefore treatment should be limited to 2 consecutive weeks and patients should not use greater than 50 grams per week or more than 21 capfuls per week because of the potential for the drug to suppress the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis.
Therapy should be discontinued when control is achieved.
Clobetasol Propionate Foam should not be used with occlusive dressings unless directed by a physician.
Clobetasol Propionate Foam is for topical use only. It is not for oral, ophthalmic, or intravaginal use.
Avoid use on the face, groin, or axillae, or if skin atrophy is present at the treatment site.
3 DOSAGE FORMS AND STRENGTHS
Foam, 0.05%. Each gram of Clobetasol Propionate Foam contains 0.5 mg of clobetasol propionate in a white aerosol foam.
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
5.1 Effects on Endocrine System
Clobetasol Propionate Foam can cause reversible hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis suppression with the potential for glucocorticosteroid insufficiency. This may occur during treatment or after withdrawal of treatment. Factors that predispose a patient to HPA axis suppression include the use of high-potency steroids, large treatment surface areas, prolonged use, use of occlusive dressings, altered skin barrier, liver failure, and young age. Evaluation for HPA axis suppression may be done by using the adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) stimulation test.
In a trial evaluating the effects of Clobetasol Propionate Foam on the HPA axis, 13 subjects applied Clobetasol Propionate Foam to at least 20% of involved body surface area for 14 days. HPA axis suppression was identified in 5 out of 13 subjects (38%) [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.2)].
If HPA axis suppression is documented, gradually withdraw the drug, reduce the frequency of application, or substitute with a less potent corticosteroid.
Cushing’s syndrome and hyperglycemia may also occur due to the systemic effects of the topical corticosteroid. These complications are rare and generally occur after prolonged exposure to excessively large doses, especially of high-potency topical corticosteroids.
Pediatric patients may be more susceptible to systemic toxicity due to their larger skin surface to body mass ratios [see Use in Specific Populations (8.4)].
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS
6.1 Clinical Trials Experience
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in clinical practice.
In a controlled clinical trial involving 188 subjects with psoriasis of the scalp, there were no localized scalp adverse reactions reported in the subjects treated with Clobetasol Propionate Foam. In 2 controlled clinical trials with Clobetasol Propionate Foam in 360 subjects with psoriasis of non-scalp regions, localized adverse events that occurred in the subjects treated with Clobetasol Propionate Foam included application site burning (10%), application site dryness (<1%), and other application site reactions (4%).
In larger controlled trials with other clobetasol propionate formulations, the most frequently reported local adverse reactions have included burning, stinging, irritation, pruritus, erythema, folliculitis, cracking and fissuring of the skin, numbness of the fingers, skin atrophy, and telangiectasia (all less than 2%).
6.2 Postmarketing Experience
Because adverse reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
Postmarketing reports for local adverse reactions to topical corticosteroids may also include: striae, itching, acneiform eruptions, hypopigmentation, perioral dermatitis, allergic contact dermatitis, secondary infection, hypertrichosis, and miliaria.
8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
8.1 Pregnancy
Teratogenic Effects
Pregnancy Category C.
There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Clobetasol Propionate Foam should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
Corticosteroids have been shown to be teratogenic in laboratory animals when administered systemically. Some corticosteroids have been shown to be teratogenic after dermal application to laboratory animals.
Clobetasol propionate has not been tested for teratogenicity when applied topically; however, it is absorbed percutaneously, and when administered subcutaneously, it was a significant teratogen in both the rabbit and the mouse. Clobetasol propionate has greater teratogenic potential than steroids that are less potent.
Teratogenicity studies in mice using the subcutaneous route resulted in fetotoxicity at the highest dose tested (1 mg/kg) and teratogenicity at all dose levels tested down to 0.03 mg/kg. These doses are approximately 1.4 and 0.04 times, respectively, the human topical dose of Clobetasol Propionate Foam based on body surface area comparisons. Abnormalities seen included cleft palate and skeletal abnormalities.
In rabbits, clobetasol propionate was teratogenic at doses of 0.003 and 0.01 mg/kg. These doses are approximately 0.02 and 0.05 times, respectively, the human topical dose of Clobetasol Propionate Foam based on body surface area comparisons. Abnormalities seen included cleft palate, cranioschisis, and other skeletal abnormalities.
8.3 Nursing Mothers
Systemically administered corticosteroids appear in human milk and can suppress growth, interfere with endogenous corticosteroid production, or cause other untoward effects. It is not known whether topical administration of corticosteroids can result in sufficient systemic absorption to produce detectable quantities in human milk. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk, caution should be exercised when Clobetasol Propionate Foam is administered to a nursing woman.
8.4 Pediatric Use
Safety and effectiveness of Clobetasol Propionate Foam in patients younger than 12 years of age have not been established; therefore, use in children younger than 12 years is not recommended.
Because of a higher ratio of skin surface area to body mass, pediatric patients are at a greater risk than adults of systemic toxicity when they are treated with topical drugs. They are, therefore, also at greater risk of adrenal insufficiency upon the use of topical corticosteroids.
Rare systemic toxicities such as Cushing’s syndrome, linear growth retardation, delayed weight gain, and intracranial hypertension have been reported in pediatric patients especially those with prolonged exposure to large doses of high potency topical corticosteroids.
Local adverse reactions including striae have also been reported with use of topical corticosteroids in pediatric patients.
Avoid use of Clobetasol Propionate Foam in the treatment of diaper dermatitis.
8.5 Geriatric Use
Clinical studies of Clobetasol Propionate Foam did not include sufficient numbers of subjects aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger subjects. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range.
11 DESCRIPTION
Clobetasol Propionate Foam, 0.05%, is a white thermolabile hydroethanolic aerosol foam containing the active ingredient, clobetasol propionate, USP, a synthetic corticosteroid, for topical use. Clobetasol, an analog of prednisolone, has a high degree of glucocorticoid activity and a slight degree of mineralocorticoid activity.
Clobetasol propionate is 21-chloro-9-fluoro-11ß,17-dihydroxy-16ß-methylpregna-1, 4- diene-3,20-dione 17-propionate, with the empirical formula C25H32CIFO5, a molecular weight of 466.97.
The following is the chemical structure:
Clobetasol propionate is a white to cream-colored crystalline powder, practically insoluble in water.
Each gram of Clobetasol Propionate Foam contains 0.5 mg clobetasol propionate, USP. The foam also contains cetyl alcohol, citric acid, ethanol (60%), polysorbate 60, potassium citrate, propylene glycol, purified water, and stearyl alcohol pressurized with a hydrocarbon (propane/butane) propellant.
12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
12.1 Mechanism of Action
Corticosteroids play a role in cellular signaling, immune function, inflammation, and protein regulation; however, the precise mechanism of action in corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses is unknown.
The contribution to efficacy by individual components of the vehicle has not been established.
12.2 Pharmacodynamics
In a controlled pharmacokinetic trial, 5 of 13 subjects experienced reversible suppression of the adrenals at any time during the 14 days of therapy with Clobetasol Propionate Foam applied to at least 20% of involved body surface area. Of the 13 subjects studied, 1 of 9 with psoriasis was suppressed after 14 days and all 4 of the subjects with atopic dermatitis had abnormal cortisol levels indicative of adrenal suppression at some time after starting therapy with Clobetasol Propionate Foam (See Table 1 below).

12.3 Pharmacokinetics
Topical corticosteroids can be absorbed from intact healthy skin. The extent of percutaneous absorption of topical corticosteroids is determined by many factors, including the product formulation and the integrity of the epidermal barrier. Occlusion, inflammation, and/or other disease processes in the skin may also increase percutaneous absorption. Once absorbed through the skin, topical corticosteroids are metabolized, primarily in the liver, and are then excreted by the kidneys. Some corticosteroids and their metabolites are also excreted in the bile.
13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY
13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility
Long-term animal studies have not been performed to evaluate the carcinogenic potential of Clobetasol Propionate Foam or clobetasol propionate.
In a 90-day repeat-dose toxicity study in rats, topical administration of clobetasol propionate foam at dose concentrations from 0.001% to 0.1% or from 0.03 to 0.3 mg/kg/day of clobetasol propionate resulted in a toxicity profile consistent with long-term exposure to corticosteroids including adrenal atrophy, histopathological changes in several organs systems indicative of severe immune suppression, and opportunistic fungal and bacterial infections. A no observable adverse effect level (NOAEL) could not be determined in this study. Although the clinical relevance of the findings in animals to humans is not clear, sustained glucocorticoid-related immune suppression may increase the risk of infection and possibly the risk for carcinogenesis.
Topical doses of 0% (foam vehicle), 0.001%, 0.01%, and 0.05% clobetasol propionate foam were evaluated in a 52-week dermal photocarcinogenicity study (40 weeks of treatment followed by 12 weeks of observation) conducted in hairless albino mice with concurrent exposure to low-level ultraviolet radiation. Topical treatment with increasing concentrations of clobetasol propionate foam did not have an adverse effect in this study.
The results of this study suggest that topical treatment with Clobetasol Propionate Foam would not enhance photocarcinogenesis.
Clobetasol propionate was nonmutagenic in 4 different test systems: the Ames test, the mouse lymphoma test, the Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene conversion assay, and the E. coli BWP2 fluctuation test. In the in vivo mouse micronucleus test, a positive finding was observed at 24 hours, but not at 48 hours, following oral administration at a dose of 2,000 mg/kg.
Studies in the rat following subcutaneous administration of clobetasol propionate at dosage levels up to 0.05 mg/kg per day revealed that the females exhibited an increase in the number of resorbed embryos and a decrease in the number of living fetuses at the highest dose.
14 CLINICAL STUDIES
14.1 Scalp Psoriasis
A well-controlled clinical trial evaluated 188 subjects with moderate to severe scalp psoriasis. Subjects were treated twice daily for 2 weeks with one of 4 treatments: Clobetasol Propionate Foam, vehicle foam, a commercially available clobetasol propionate solution (TEMOVATE® Scalp Application), or vehicle solution. The efficacy of Clobetasol Propionate Foam in treating scalp psoriasis at the end of the 2 weeks’ treatment was superior to that of vehicle (foam and solution), and was comparable to that of TEMOVATE Scalp Application (Table 2).

Another well-controlled clinical trial evaluated 279 subjects with mild to moderate plaque-type psoriasis (mean body surface area at baseline was 6.7% with a range from 1% to 20%) of non-scalp regions. Subjects were treated twice daily for 2 weeks with Clobetasol Propionate Foam or vehicle foam. The face and intertriginous areas were excluded from treatment. The efficacy of Clobetasol Propionate Foam in treating non-scalp psoriasis at the end of 2 weeks’ treatment was superior to that of vehicle foam (Table 3).

Instructions for Use
Clobetasol Propionate Foam
Important: Clobetasol Propionate Foam is for use on the skin only. Do not get Clobetasol Propionate Foam near or in your eyes, mouth or vagina.
How should I apply Clobetasol Propionate Foam?
Apply Clobetasol Propionate Foam, 2 times a day, 1 time in the morning and 1 time in the evening, or as directed by your healthcare provider.
Apply only enough to cover the affected areas. Clobetasol Propionate Foam should not be applied to the groin, armpits, or other skin fold areas.
To use Clobetasol Propionate Foam:
Step 1: Before applying Clobetasol Propionate Foam for the first time, break the tiny plastic piece at the base of the can’s rim by gently pushing back (away from the piece) on the nozzle. (see Figure A)
Step 2: Turn the can upside down.
Push the button to squirt a small amount of Clobetasol Propionate Foam into the cap of the can, onto a saucer or other cool surface, or on your affected skin area. (see Figure B) This amount should be no more than 1½ capfuls, about the size of a golf ball.
Do not squirt Clobetasol Propionate Foam directly onto your hands (unless your hands are the affected areas), because the foam will begin to melt right away on contact with your warm skin.
If your fingers are warm, rinse them in cold water first. Be sure to dry them thoroughly before handling the foam.
If the can seems warm or the foam seems runny, run the can under cold water.
Step 3: Using your fingertips, gently massage Clobetasol Propionate Foam into the affected areas until the foam disappears. (see Figures C and D)
Step 4: If you are treating areas with hair, such as the scalp, move any hair away so that the foam can be applied directly to the affected areas. (see Figure E)
Repeat the process until the affected areas are treated.
Keep the foam away from your eyes, as it will sting and may cause eye problems if there is frequent contact with your eyes. If the foam gets in your eyes, rinse them well with cold water right away. If the stinging continues, contact your healthcare provider right away.
Step 5: Wash your hands after applying Clobetasol Propionate Foam. (see Figure F) Throw away any of the unused medicine that you squirted out of the can.
How should I store Clobetasol Propionate Foam?
Store the Clobetasol Propionate Foam at room temperature, between 68°F to 77°F (20°C to 25°C).
