Betnovate N Cream 0.1%/0.5% is a combination medicine formulated with Betamethasone and Neomycin. It is primarily used to treat various types of bacterial skin infections by reducing symptoms of inflammation like redness, swelling, and itching. The dual action of Betamethasone, a steroid, and Neomycin, an antibiotic, also works against the microorganisms causing the infection.

This Betamethasone Neomycin cream is strictly for external application and should be used exactly as advised by your doctor. Apply a thin layer only to the affected skin areas with clean, dry hands. If the cream accidentally comes into contact with your eyes, nose, mouth, or vagina, rinse immediately with water. While it may take several days to weeks for your symptoms to improve, it's crucial to continue using this medicine regularly and complete the full course of treatment for the best results. If your condition does not improve or worsens, consult your doctor promptly.

Common side effects associated with Betnovate N Cream 0.1%/0.5% include temporary itching, redness, or a burning sensation at the application site. These are usually mild and resolve on their own. Serious allergic reactions are rare, but if you experience symptoms like rashes, severe itching, swelling, or shortness of breath, seek immediate medical attention. Before starting this treatment, inform your doctor about any other medicines you are currently taking or have recently taken, for skin conditions or other health issues. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should use this cream with caution and only after consulting their doctor. If you have a known allergy to Betamethasone, Neomycin, or any other ingredients in this cream, you should avoid using it and discuss suitable alternatives with your doctor. During treatment, avoid touching or scratching infected skin areas to prevent worsening or spreading the infection.
