Betnovate C Cream

Betnovate-C Cream (Betamethasone & Clioquinol)

Betnovate-C is a powerful dual-action therapeutic cream used to treat inflammatory skin conditions where a secondary bacterial or fungal infection is present or likely to occur. It combines Betamethasone, a high-potency corticosteroid that reduces swelling, redness, and itching, with Clioquinol, an antimicrobial agent with both antibacterial and antifungal properties. This combination is particularly effective for infected eczema, seborrheic dermatitis, and various skin rashes that have become inflamed due to scratching. By simultaneously treating the inflammation and the underlying microbes, Betnovate-C provides rapid symptomatic relief while clearing the infection to prevent further skin damage.

Key Features

• Combines a strong anti-inflammatory steroid with a broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent.
• Quickly alleviates severe itching and burning sensations associated with infected skin rashes.
• Effectively targets a wide range of bacteria and fungi that complicate inflammatory skin disorders.
• Rapidly constricts blood vessels in the skin to reduce visible inflammation and “weeping” of lesions.
• The cream base is easily absorbed, making it suitable for moist or weeping skin areas.

Key Ingredients

• Betamethasone Valerate (0.1% w/w)
• Clioquinol (3.0% w/w)
• Cream Base

Precautions

• Clioquinol may cause yellowish staining of the skin, hair, and fabric; handle with care around clothing and linens.
• This is a potent medication; do not use for more than 7–14 days unless specifically instructed by your doctor.
• Avoid application on the face, groin, or underarms unless directed by a dermatologist, as these areas are prone to skin thinning.
• Not suitable for primary viral infections (like chickenpox or herpes) or tuberculosis of the skin.
• Consult your physician before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

How to Use

• Apply a thin layer of Betnovate-C Cream to the affected area only.
• Rub gently into the skin until the cream vanishes.
• Typically used 2 to 3 times daily. Once the condition improves, application frequency should be reduced as per medical advice.
• Wash your hands thoroughly after application to prevent spreading the infection or medication to unaffected areas.
• If the skin condition does not improve within 7 days, or if irritation increases, consult your healthcare provider immediately.
