Do you mean: “Is there a patent on clobetasol propionate 0.05%?” or you want the patent status for a specific country and product form (ointment, cream, spray, etc.)?
Here’s the general situation:
- Clobetasol propionate 0.05% is a standard topical corticosteroid strength used in many products (ointment, cream, gel, spray).
- The original patents covering clobetasol propionate as an API and as a 0.05% topical formulation are largely expired in many major markets, which is why generics of clobetasol propionate 0.05% are widely available.
- Some brands (e.g., Dermovate in the UK, Clobex in the US) may still exist as branded products, and there can be active patents or regulatory exclusivities on specific formulations, delivery systems, or combination products in certain countries.
If you want precise status for a specific country and product form, tell me:
- the country (e.g., US, UK, India, etc.)
- the product form (ointment, cream, spray, shampoo, etc.)
I can then help you look up current patent status or guide you to searchable patent databases (USPTO, EPO, WIPO, Google Patents) to confirm expiration dates and any active formulation patents.
