Betaderm 0.1% Betamethasone Valerate Cream - 20g Tube
Inflammatory skin diseases such as atopic eczema, allergic contact dermatitis, and insect bite reactions cause severe localized swelling and uncontrollable itching. Betaderm 0.1% Cream is a potent, prescription-strength anti-inflammatory treatment. Containing Betamethasone Valerate in a smooth cream vehicle, it rapidly suppresses localized histamine release and vasodilation, providing fast relief from red, inflamed skin rashes.
How to Use / Operate
Apply a small amount thinly to the affected area 1 to 2 times daily until improvement occurs, then reduce frequency. Wash hands after application.
