For non-prescription products, read the label or package ingredients carefully.


Pediatric


Appropriate studies performed to date have not demonstrated pediatric-specific problems that would limit the usefulness of betamethasone topical in the pediatric population. However, because of this medicine's toxicity, it should be used with caution. Children may absorb large amounts through the skin, which can cause serious side effects. If your child is using this medicine, follow your doctor's instructions very carefully. For the foam form, safety and efficacy have not been established.


Geriatric


No information is available on the relationship of age to the effects of betamethasone topical in geriatric patients.


Interactions with Medicines


Although certain medicines should not be used together at all, in other cases two different medicines may be used together even if an interaction might occur. In these cases, your doctor may want to change the dose, or other precautions may be necessary. Tell your healthcare professional if you are taking any other prescription or nonprescription (over-the-counter [OTC]) medicine.


Interactions with Food/Tobacco/Alcohol


Certain medicines should not be used at or around the time of eating food or eating certain types of food since interactions may occur. Using alcohol or tobacco with certain medicines may also cause interactions to occur. Discuss with your healthcare professional the use of your medicine with food, alcohol, or tobacco.


Other Medical Problems


The presence of other medical problems may affect the use of this medicine. Make sure you tell your doctor if you have any other medical problems, especially:


  • Cushing's syndrome (adrenal gland disorder) or

  • Diabetes or

  • Hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) or

  • Intracranial hypertension (increased pressure in the head)—Use with caution. May make these conditions worse.

  • Infection of the skin at or near the place of application or

  • Large sores, broken skin, or severe skin injury at the place of application—The chance of side effects may be increased.

Proper Use of betamethasone

This section provides information on the proper use of a number of products that contain betamethasone. It may not be specific to Betnovate-1/2. Please read with care.


It is very important that you use this medicine only as directed by your doctor. Do not use more of it, do not use it more often, and do not use it for a longer time than your doctor ordered. To do so may cause unwanted side effects or skin irritation.


This medicine is for use on the skin only. Do not get it in your eyes. Do not use it on skin areas that have cuts, scrapes, or burns. If it does get on these areas, rinse it off right away with water.


This medicine should only be used for skin conditions that your doctor is treating. Check with your doctor before using it for other conditions, especially if you think that an infection may be present. This medicine should not be used to treat certain kinds of skin infections or conditions, such as severe burns.


To use cream, lotion, or ointment:


  • Wash your hands with soap and water before and after using this medicine.

  • Apply a thin layer of this medicine to the affected area of the skin. Rub it in gently.

  • With the lotion, protect the skin from water, clothing, or anything that causes rubbing until the medicine has dried. Also, shake the lotion well before using it.

  • Do not bandage or otherwise wrap the skin being treated unless directed to do so by your doctor.

  • If the medicine is applied to the diaper area of an infant, do not use tight-fitting diapers or plastic pants unless directed to do so by your doctor.

  • If your doctor ordered an occlusive dressing or airtight covering to be applied over the medicine, make sure you know how to apply it. Occlusive dressings increase the amount of medicine absorbed through your skin, so use them only as directed. If you have any questions about this, check with your doctor.

To use the foam:


  • This medicine comes with a patient information insert. Read and follow the instructions carefully.

  • Wash your hands with soap and water before and after using this medicine.

  • Turn the can upside down and place a small amount of medicine in a saucer or any cool, clean surface. Do not put the foam directly in your hands. This will melt the foam immediately upon contact with warm skin.

  • Move the hair away and put a small amount of the foam on the affected areas of the scalp. Massage it in gently until the medicine has dried.

  • Do not wash or rinse the treated areas immediately after applying the medicine.

  • Do not use this medicine near heat, open flame, or while smoking.

Dosing


The dose of this medicine will be different for different patients. Follow your doctor's orders or the directions on the label. The following information includes only the average doses of this medicine. If your dose is different, do not change it unless your doctor tells you to do so.


The amount of medicine that you take depends on the strength of the medicine. Also, the number of doses you take each day, the time allowed between doses, and the length of time you take the medicine depend on the medical problem for which you are using the medicine.


  • For redness, itching, and swelling of the skin:

Precautions While Using Betnovate-1/2


It is very important that your doctor check the progress of you or your child at regular visits for any unwanted effects that may be caused by this medicine.


If your or your child's symptoms do not improve within a few days, or if they become worse, check with your doctor.


Using too much of this medicine or using it for a long time may increase your risk of having adrenal gland problems. The risk is greater for children and patients who use large amounts for a long time. Talk to your doctor if you or your child have more than one of these symptoms while you are using this medicine: blurred vision; dizziness or fainting; a fast, irregular, or pounding heartbeat; increased thirst or urination; irritability; or unusual tiredness or weakness.


Stop using this medicine and check with your doctor right away if you or your child have a skin rash, burning, stinging, swelling, or irritation on the skin.


Do not use cosmetics or other skin care products on the treated areas.
