This medicine is effective in treating patients suffering from Eczema.
Betnovate RD cream is used to treat inflammatory skin disorders, such as eczema.
What is Betnovate Rd cream
Betnovate RD cream is used to treat inflammatory skin disorders, such as eczema. Its active ingredient is betamethasone valerate, a potent corticosteroid. Betnovate RD is a 1 in 4 dilution of Betnovate cream and is used in situations where normal Betnovate would be too strong. This cream is easy to apply and is absorbed quickly into the affected area. Betnovate RD cream is most suited for skin that is moist or weeping. It is used to control outbreaks of skin inflammation rather than as a long-term preventative measure.
How does it work
Corticosteroids, such as betamethasone valerate are anti-inflammatory medicines. The skin becomes inflamed when the body releases inflammatory chemicals in response to an allergen or irritation. These chemicals make blood vessels widen, causing the skin to swell and become itchy and painful. Corticosteroids inhibit the body’s inflammatory response by preventing cells from releasing large amounts of these substances.
