Beclometasone

Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected skin once or twice daily, unless your doctor advises otherwise. Gently massage the cream in until it is fully absorbed. Wash your hands after use, unless you are treating your hands. Do not use the cream on large areas of skin or for longer than prescribed. Avoid contact with the eyes and mucous membranes.

This cream contains beclometasone, a corticosteroid that can reduce inflammation and allergic reactions in the skin. As a result, symptoms such as redness, swelling, and itching often subside. The product can help to soothe the skin and prevent further irritation. Beclometasone cream usually works quickly, but it is important not to use it for longer than necessary.

Side effects are usually rare when the cream is used correctly. Possible side effects include:

• Mild irritation, itching, or a burning sensation at the site of application (occasionally).
• Thinning of the skin if used for a prolonged period (rare).
• Worsening of existing skin infections (rare).

Beclometasone cream is safe for most people, but should not be used if you are allergic to beclometasone or any of the other ingredients in the cream. Do not use it on untreated skin infections (such as fungal, bacterial, or viral infections), open wounds, acne, rosacea, or around the mouth. Not suitable for children under 1 year old without medical advice. Always consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Take care when applying the cream to the face, large areas of skin, or in children. Excessive or prolonged use can lead to thinning of the skin. Men should take extra care when using it on the beard area, and women when applying it to the face or neck.
