Online Diprolene
Lotion (Betamethasone Dipropionate) Use Indication:
Diprolene
AF /Betamethasone comes in ointment, cream, lotion, and aerosol (spray)
in various strengths for use on the skin. It is usually applied one to
four times a day. Follow the directions on your prescription label
carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do
not understand. Use Diprolene Lotion exactly as directed. Do not use more or
less of it or use it more often than prescribed by your doctor. Do not
apply it to other areas of your body or wrap or bandage the treated area
unless directed to do so by your doctor.
Wash or soak the affected area thoroughly before applying Diprolene
Lotion
medicine, unless it irritates your skin. Then apply the ointment or
cream sparingly in a thin film and rub it in gently.
To use the lotion on your scalp, part your hair, apply a small amount of
the medicine on the affected area, and rub it in gently. Protect the
area from washing and rubbing until the lotion dries. You may wash your
hair as usual but not right after applying the medicine.
To apply an aerosol, shake well and spray on the affected area holding
the container about 3 to 6 inches away. Spray for about 2 seconds to
cover an area the size of your hand. Take care not to inhale the vapors.
If you are spraying near your face, cover your eyes.
Avoid prolonged use on the face, in the genital and rectal areas, and in
skin creases and armpits unless directed by your doctor.
If you are using Diprolene Lotion on your face, keep it out of your eyes.
If you are using Diprolene Lotion /Betamethasone on a child's diaper area,
do not use tight-fitting diapers or plastic pants. Such use may increase
side effects.
Do not apply cosmetics or other skin preparations on the treated area
without talking with your doctor.
If your doctor tells you to wrap or bandage the treated area, follow
these instructions:
Soak the area in water or wash it well.
While the skin is moist, gently rub the medication into the affected
areas.
Cover the area with plastic wrap (such as Saran Wrap or Handi-Wrap.) The
plastic may be held in place with a gauze or elastic bandage or adhesive
tape on the normal skin beside the treated area. (Instead of using
plastic wrap, plastic gloves may be used for the hands, plastic bags for
the feet, or a shower cap for the scalp.)
Carefully seal the edges of the plastic to make sure the wrap adheres
closely to the skin. If the affected area is moist, you can leave the
edges of the plastic wrap partly unsealed or puncture the wrap to allow
excess moisture to escape.
Leave the plastic wrapping in place as long as instructed by your
doctor. Usually plastic wraps are left in place not more than 12 hours
each day.
Cleanse the skin and reapply the medication each time a new plastic
wrapping is applied.
Call your doctor if the treated area gets worse or if burning, swelling,
redness, or oozing of pus develops..
