How to Use Clotrimazole and Betamethasone Cream

Apply a thin layer of cream to the affected area twice daily, morning and evening. Gently rub it in until fully absorbed.

Cleaning the Affected Area

    Wash and thoroughly dry the affected skin before applying the cream. This helps the cream penetrate better. Use mild soap and avoid harsh scrubbing.

Continue using the cream for the full duration prescribed by your doctor, even if the symptoms improve. Stopping early might lead to a recurrence of the infection.

Addressing Specific Concerns

    For rashes or redness: Apply a small amount, focusing on the irritated patches. Avoid excessive application. For itching: The cream should provide relief, but if itching persists, consult your doctor. For large affected areas: Divide application into smaller sections, ensuring complete coverage.

Precautions

Avoid contact with eyes. If accidental contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. Do not use the cream on open wounds or broken skin. Inform your doctor about any other medications you are using. Store the cream at room temperature, away from direct sunlight.

When to See a Doctor

Contact your doctor if your symptoms worsen, do not improve after a week, or if you experience any unexpected side effects. This includes burning, stinging, swelling, or increased skin irritation.

Storage

Store the cream in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
