Halobetasol propionate is a class I topical corticosteroid, or an ultrapotent corticosteroid according the Stoughton classification system which is widely used in United States. Halobetasol propionate has been approved in the United States for the treatment of corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses.

Li et al. (2001) investigated the effects of eucalyptus oil on percutaneous penetration and absorption of a clobetasol propionate cream using vertical diffusion cells. The in vitro penetration of the cream containing 0.05% clobetasol propionate through mouse abdominal skin was detected at 2,4,6, 8, 10, and 24 h (cumulative amount Q, pg/g) and at steady state (/, pg/cm /h). The quantity of clobetasol propionate within the whole stria of skin after 24 h (D, pg/g) was measured too. Eucalyptus oil was able to increase Q and J, whereas D was not influenced in that way, which indicates that eucalyptus oil would increase clobetasol propionate percutaneous absorption and cause unwanted side effects.
