What is Diprosone Cream?
Diprosone Cream with the active ingredient betamethasone dipropionate belongs to a group of medicine called topical corticosteroids. It works by acting inside the cells in the body to decrease the amount of inflammatory substances to reduce swelling, redness, dryness, itching, and various skin conditions. It is mainly prescribed to treat allergic disorders, lupus, eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis and arthritis.

How is Diprosone Cream used?
Diprosone Cream should only be applied topically usually 1 to 4 times or as directed by a doctor. Before applying the cream, wash and dry your hands and the affected area. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area and rub it in gently. Protect the area from washing, rubbing and let the area dry naturally unless directed to do so by your doctor. Wash your hands immediately after applying the cream unless it is the area you are treating.
