Betnovate N Cream 30 gm

Betnovate N Cream is used to treat various bacterial skin infections. Bacterial skin infection occurs when bacteria penetrate through hair follicles or broken skin and cause infection. Symptoms include redness, pain, tenderness of the skin, minor bumps or boils, rashes, blisters, cracked/dry skin, swelling, stinging or burning sensation, pus formation, and itching.

Betnovate N Cream contains Betamethasone and Neomycin. Betamethasone belongs to the class of corticosteroids. It blocks the production of prostaglandins (chemical messengers) that make the affected area red, swollen and itchy. Thereby treats inflammation and itchiness caused by skin infections. Neomycin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic that prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions.

Betnovate N Cream is for topical (for skin) use only. Common side effects of Betnovate N Cream include itching, dryness, and a burning sensation at the application site. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and resolve gradually over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, consult a doctor.

Let your doctor know if you are allergic to any of the components in Betnovate N Cream. Do not use Betnovate N Cream on open wounds, blisters and lesions. Please do not cover the affected areas with a dressing or bandage since it increases the side effects. If Betnovate N Cream gets into your eyes, nose, mouth or vagina, rinse with cold water. Betnovate N Cream is not recommended for the treatment of diaper rash. Pregnant and breastfeeding mothers should consult the doctor before starting Betnovate N Cream.

Betnovate N Cream treats various bacterial skin infections, such as eczema (inflamed, itchy, cracked and rough skin patches), psoriasis (skin cells multiply rapidly to form bumpy (uneven) red patches covered with white scales), dermatitis (itchy inflammation of the skin), and insect bites. Betnovate N Cream also effectively treats prurigo nodularis (hard, itchy lumps on the skin), lichen simplex chronicus (scaling of the skin due to repetitive itching), lichen planus (swelling and irritation on the skin, hair, nails and mucous membranes), seborrhoeic dermatitis (scaly patches and red skin mainly on the scalp), miliaria (prickly heat), anal and genital intertrigo (chaffing of the skin). Betnovate N Cream consists of Betamethasone (corticosteroid) and Neomycin (antibiotic). Betamethasone blocks prostaglandin production (chemical messengers) that make the affected area red, swollen and itchy. Neomycin prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions.
