Betamethasone dipropionate is a potent topical corticosteroid used to treat inflammatory and allergic skin conditions. It helps reduce redness, swelling, itching, and discomfort by suppressing the body’s inflammatory and immune responses in the skin. This medication is commonly prescribed for conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, and allergic rashes. Betamethasone dipropionate is available in various topical forms, including creams, ointments, and lotions, and is intended for external use only. Because it is a strong steroid, it should be used exactly as directed by a healthcare professional to minimize the risk of side effects.
