Clobetasol (Clobex, Olux, Clodan, Cormax, Temovate, Embeline) is an expensive steroid used on the skin to treat itching, redness, and swelling caused by some skin conditions. This drug is slightly more popular than comparable drugs. It is available in multiple generic and brand versions. It is not covered by most Medicare and insurance plans, but manufacturer and pharmacy coupons can help offset the cost.
