FAQs
What is Betnovate Cream? What is it used for?
Betnovate Cream belongs to a group of medicines called steroids, also known as corticosteroids. Betnovate Cream is used to treat various allergic skin conditions (e.g., eczema, dermatitis, allergies, rash). Betnovate Cream effectively reduces symptoms such as swelling, itching and redness associated with such conditions.
Is Betnovate Cream good for burns?
No, Betnovate Cream should never be applied in those areas of the skin that have burns, cuts or scrapes. If Betnovate Cream accidently gets onto such areas, rinse the area thoroughly with water. It is advisable that you use this medicine only as directed by your doctor to avoid any adverse effects and worsening of your condition.
How does Betnovate Cream work?
Betnovate Cream works by decreasing the inflammation caused by allergies. It reduces inflammation by blocking the release of certain natural substances that cause allergic symptoms such as swelling, redness and pain.
How long does Betnovate Cream take to start working?
The time required by Betnovate Cream to start showing its effects may differ from person to person. Usually, it starts showing relief within 8 hours of starting Betnovate Cream. It may even take several days before you see maximum benefits. In order to improve your symptoms faster, it is important to take the medicine regularly to gain maximum benefit from the medicine.
How to use Betnovate Cream?

Be careful not to get Betnovate Cream into your eyes or mouth. If you happen to get it in your eyes, rinse off with plenty of water immediately and contact your doctor.

Inform your doctor if you are taking any medicines regularly to prevent any allergic reaction with other medicines.
