Hi,
Thanks for the query.
You have not mentioned the condition for which you are using the cream Eumovate (clobetasone ). This is a steroidal cream though low potent ,which has to be used for a limited period. Try tacrolimus (0.03%) creams twice daily as these are safe for long term usage ( they act slowly) . If you require the same clobetasone containing cream try Eumosone or Closone creams.
I find this answer helpful
