Uses of Betaderm Cream N 15gm

How Betaderm Cream N 15gm works

Betamethasone is a corticosteroid that calms inflammation, easing redness, swelling and itching. Neomycin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic that kills bacteria by stopping them from making essential proteins. Together they treat the infection and the inflammation around it.

Possible side effects

Used correctly and for short periods, Betaderm Cream N 15gm rarely causes problems. Common effects include:

• Stinging or burning on application
• Itching or irritation
• Temporary blurred vision after eye drops
• Skin thinning with long use

See a doctor for worsening pain or redness, changes in vision, any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, or a spreading rash.

Precautions and warnings

• Use only for the time prescribed, as long use can thin the skin or raise eye pressure.
• Do not use ear drops if you have, or might have, a perforated eardrum, as neomycin can damage hearing.
• Do not use it on viral or fungal infections such as cold sores, herpes of the eye or ringworm.
• Avoid large areas of broken skin and long use in children.
• Speak to your doctor before using it if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Storage

Store below 30°C and keep the cap tightly closed. For external use only; avoid contact with the eyes unless the product is made for eye use. Keep all medicines out of the reach of children.
