What you should know about Betnovate cream

Betnovate cream is one of a group of medicines called topical steroids.

"Topical" means they are put on the skin. Topical steroids reduce the redness and itchiness of certain skin problems.

What your cream does

Betnovate cream is a strong and rapidly effective treatment for inflamed skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis.

Before you use your cream

This cream has been prescribed to treat the skin problem that you showed to your doctor.

DO NOT put it on any other skin problems as it could make them worse, especially:

• acne and conditions called rosacea (severe flushing of skin on and around the nose) and perioral dermatitis (spotty red rash around the mouth)
• skin infections such as cold sores, herpes, chicken pox, impetigo, ringworm, athletes foot, thrush.

DO NOT use it around the anus (back passage) or genitals (private parts) unless your doctor has told you to do so.
Tell your doctor BEFORE you start to use the cream:

• If you have ever had an allergy to any creams or ointments in the past
• If you think you may be pregnant

Even so, your doctor may still want you to use the cream.


Face -
YOU SHOULD NOT normally use on the face where the skin thins easily - BUT if your doctor has advised you to use it on the face then, if possible, the course of treatment should not last more than five days. It is important that you DO NOT let the cream get in your eyes

Children -
DO NOT use on a child under one year of age, or under the nappy, or airtight dressing of an infant older than one year. (These make it easier for the active ingredient to pass through the skin).


How to use your cream

If your doctor has told you in detail HOW MUCH to use and HOW OFTEN then keep to this advice.
If you are not sure then follow the advice on the back of this leaflet.
Unless told by your doctor:

• YOU SHOULD NOT use more than this.
• YOU SHOULD NOT use on large areas of the body for a long time (such as nearly every day for many weeks or months).

If your skin problem does not improve in two to four weeks tell your doctor.

If your doctor has prescribed the cream for psoriasis you should let your doctor review your progress at regular intervals, as such treatment needs careful supervision.

This cream is for use on the skin only, but if accidentally swallowed small amounts are not harmful.

It is important to follow the instructions on this leaflet. If, on a few occasions by mistake you apply more than the recommended amount do not worry.

If you forget to apply your cream, apply the correct dose when you remember or if it is close to your next application then wait until this time.


Guidance on how much cream to use

If your doctor has told you in detail how to use the cream keep to that advice otherwise:-

Two or three times a day, after washing your hands, gently rub the correct amount of cream into the skin until it has all disappeared. Unless used for treating the hands wash them again after using the cream. Anyone who helps to rub in the cream should also do the same or wear disposable plastic gloves.

As soon as your skin condition begins to improve you can use your cream less often.

If you have particularly thick patches of psoriasis, for example on your elbows and knees, your doctor may want you to apply the cream overnight under an airtight dressing. Continue to apply the cream in this way until your doctor advises you otherwise.

For an adult:
You should find that

• two fingertips of cream will treat both hands or one foot
• three fingertips of cream will treat one arm
• six fingertips of cream will treat one leg
• fourteen fingertips of cream will treat the front and back of one trunk

Do not worry if you find you need a little more or a little less than this - it is only a rough guide.







For a child:

It should not be used in children under one year of age.

The smaller the child the less you use.

A child of 4 years needs about a third of the adult amount.

A course of treatment for a child should not normally last more than five days unless your doctor has told you to use it for longer.

Has the cream any side effects?

Most people find using this cream causes no problems when used in the right amount for the correct length of time (see above).

IF you find your condition gets worse during treatment you may be allergic to the cream or have a skin infection which needs other treatment.

STOP USING THE CREAM AND TELL YOUR DOCTOR AS SOON AS POSSIBLE

Using more than the correct amount may:

• thin the skin so that it damages easily
• allow the active ingredient to pass through the skin and affect other parts of the body, especially in infants and children, and during pregnancy.

If you have been using Betnovate regularly, it is important to take your doctors advice before stopping treatment.

You may notice some burning, irritation and/or itching where the cream is applied.

Repeated courses of topical steroids over a long time may sometimes cause changes in hair growth and skin colour.

Striae (stretch marks) may develop and surface veins may become more noticeable.

Very rarely, when used on psoriasis (or on stopping treatment) it may make the condition worse e.g. a pustular form of the disease may occur. That is why, if used in this condition, your doctor will want to see you regularly.

If you feel unwell or have any unusual discomfort you do not understand, tell your doctor as soon as possible.


Where to keep your cream

As with all medicines keep this cream safely away from children.
Store below 25癈.



What to do with any unused cream

If your doctor stops your treatment, return any unused cream to a pharmacist. Only keep it if your doctor tells you to.
Do not use the cream after the expiry date on the tube end or carton.

Thanks in advanced for your explan ...

Betnovate tu utk gatal gatal kulit -- saya gunakan cream ni utk hilangkan jerawat di muka

Yang ini saya beli dkt farmasi di Cheras $24 ringgit sahaja



Ponstan tu utk hilngkan sakit.

One of my brother is a pharmacist nanti saya email dia senarai ubat you ni dan bagi jawapannya later.

zerozone

Betnovate tak boleh diguna untuk kawasan yg luas pada kulit sebab kemungkinan sebahagian ubat tu boleh diserap kedalam badan dan menyebabkan toxicity steroid.

Neuroforte = high dose vit B complex biasa guna untuk masalah saraf, keletihan

Papase = untuk kecutkan bengkak

zerozone

estelle 35 sejenis pil hormon yg digunakan untuk merawat penyakit2 yg disebabkan hormon androgen yg tinggi spt jerawat. Juga digunakan sebagai pil perancang keluarga.

setahu saya, betnovate x digunakan pada jerawat, lg lambat elok kalau pakai betnovate...kalau untuk jerawat, pakai jenis ubat yg lain mcm benzoyl peroxide or sulfur in calamine preparations...
betnovate ni utk allergic kulit pada kawasan bdn kecuali muka...kalau allergic kat muka pakai hydrocort cream

siti7677

adakah estelle 35 sama ngan diane 35.tq

DARSITA

One of my brother is a pharmacist nanti saya email dia senarai ubat you ni dan bagi jawapannya later.

1. Betnovate cream- steroid cream for rash or eczema! like Hydrocortisone cream
2. Ponstan- this is capsule like Motrin !
3. Neuroforte- vitamin b12
4. Papase- this is an enzyme !
