What is Betamethasone Dipropionate + Salicylic Acid?
Active Ingredients: Betamethasone Dipropionate, Salicylic Acid
Betamethasone Dipropionate + Salicylic Acid Lotion is a topical combination medicine used to treat certain dry, scaly skin conditions such as psoriasis and eczema. This drug is an effective treatment for reducing symptoms including skin inflammation, itching, swelling, irritation, and redness.
This dermatological medicine contains two active ingredients: Betamethasone Dipropionate and Salicylic Acid. Betamethasone Dipropionate is a potent glucocorticoid steroid with both anti-inflammatory and antipruritic properties. It helps reduce itching, swelling, and redness. Salicylic Acid belongs to the family of drugs called salicylates, which also includes aspirin. When used as a topical drug, Salicylic Acid works as a keratolytic agent. It causes the outer layer of skin to shed, which reduced dryness and scaling.
Betamethasone Dipropionate + Salicylic Acid is also available for distribution as a sterile ointment.
