Diprosalic is a medicated ointment used to treat various skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis. this ointment contains two active ingredients: betamethasone, which is a corticosteroid that helps reduce inflammation, and salicylic acid, which aids in the removal of dead skin cells. Diprosalic is suitable for adults and children over the age of 1 year with inflammatory skin disorders that do not respond to less potent corticosteroids.
Description
Dosage and usage
Apply a thin layer of Diprosalic to the affected areas of your skin once or twice daily, as directed by your healthcare provider. Do not cover the treated area with a bandage or dressing unless instructed to do so. Avoid using Diprosalic on your face, broken or infected skin, or areas with thin skin such as the armpits or groin. It is important not to exceed the prescribed dosage to minimize the risk of side effects.
What Diprosalic contains
Each gram of Diprosalic ointment contains 0.64 mg of betamethasone (as dipropionate) and 30 mg of salicylic acid, along with other ingredients such as liquid paraffin, white soft paraffin, and industrial methylated spirit.
Side effects
Common side effects of Diprosalic may include skin irritation, burning, itching, or dryness at the application site. If you experience severe skin reactions, such as allergic contact dermatitis, or notice signs of skin thinning, contact your healthcare provider promptly. In rare cases, prolonged use of corticosteroids like betamethasone can lead to systemic side effects such as adrenal suppression or Cushing's syndrome. Seek medical help if you develop symptoms like weight gain, moon face, or easy bruising.
Precautions
Do not use Diprosalic if you are allergic to betamethasone, salicylic acid, or any other ingredients in the ointment. Avoid applying Diprosalic to large areas of skin or for an extended period without medical supervision, as this can increase the risk of systemic absorption and side effects. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any underlying medical conditions before using Diprosalic. If you have skin infections or rosacea, discuss the risks and benefits of Diprosalic with your healthcare provider before starting treatment.

An excellent experience.
This was an excellent experience which actually surpassed my expectations.I required a medication fairly urgently and probably just a one off however I will have no hesitation in using the service again if need be.The service was exceptionally good, courteous and helpful. My meds arrived very rapidly and I was able to fully track the delivery progress which was via a well established courier company.Highly recommend.
Quick and straightforward assessment
Quick and straightforward assessment, easy to order, fast delivery service, ability to ask questions via email, regarding the medication you’ve ordered. The only thing I was slightly disappointed with, was when I made my second order on the medication I previously purchased, as the price went up by almost £10.
