Betacort-N Betamethasone & Neomycin Antibacterial Cream - 15g Tube
Scratching severe eczema or allergic skin welts can break the protective epidermal barrier, introducing bacterial pathogens and causing secondary skin infections. Betacort-N Cream offers a dual-action clinical remedy. By combining Betamethasone to suppress intense swelling and itching with Neomycin Sulfate (a broad-spectrum antibiotic) to kill invading skin bacteria, it restores healthy, uninfected skin texture efficiently.
How to Use / Operate
Apply a thin layer to clean affected skin 2 to 3 times daily as prescribed. Rub in gently. Wash hands after application.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Betacort-N Cream used for?
It is indicated for inflammatory skin disorders like eczema or insect bites where a secondary bacterial infection is present or likely to develop.
How long can I use this cream?
Use should generally be limited to 7-14 days to prevent bacterial resistance to neomycin and topical steroid side effects.
Important Clinical Considerations
For external use only. Avoid large surface area application or occlusive dressings, which increase systemic neomycin absorption risks. Discontinue if signs of local skin sensitization or allergic rash appear.
