BETNOVATE N 25G

Betnovate-N Cream treats various bacterial skin infections, such as eczema (inflamed, itchy, cracked and rough skin patches), psoriasis (skin cells multiply rapidly to form bumpy (uneven) red patches covered with white scales), dermatitis (itchy inflammation of the skin), and insect bites. Betnovate-N Cream also effectively treats prurigo nodularis (hard, itchy lumps on the skin), lichen simplex chronicus (scaling of the skin due to repetitive itching), lichen planus (swelling and irritation on the skin, hair, nails and mucous membranes), seborrhoeic dermatitis (scaly patches and red skin mainly on the scalp), miliaria (prickly heat), anal and genital intertrigo (chaffing of the skin). Betnovate-N Cream consists of Betamethasone (corticosteroid) and Neomycin (antibiotic). Betamethasone blocks prostaglandin production (chemical messengers) that make the affected area red, swollen and itchy. Neomycin prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions.
