Pharmacological action

Betaderm - a combined preparation for the treatment of inflammatory skin lesions of allergic etiology, complicated by bacterial infection or hyperkeratosis.

Betamethasone dipropionate is a synthetic fluorinated derivative of hydrocortisone. It easily penetrates the skin, exerting a pronounced local anti-inflammatory, antipruritic and anti-allergic effect. Due to the local vasoconstrictor effect, it reduces the severity of exudative reactions.

Gentamicin sulfate is a broad-spectrum antibiotic. Active against gram-negative and some gram-positive bacteria.

Indications

Dry inflammatory conditions of the skin (dermatosis), complicated by a secondary bacterial infection and with hyperkeratosis, itching:

- atopic dermatitis

- seborrheic dermatitis

- chronic chronic lichen srdlpkrd ecz - ecd lupus erythematosus (skin manifestations)

- polymorphic erythema.

Viral, fungal or tuberculous skin lesions, skin neoplasms, rosacea, open-angle glaucoma, chickenpox, HIV infection, herpes zoster, phlebitis, trophic ulcer, pregnancy and lactation, up to 2 years of age. The drug is not recommended to be applied to the skin of the face or applied to large areas of the skin (especially in case of violation of its integrity, for example, with burns). With caution, the drug should be used for atrophy of the subcutaneous tissue in the elderly.

Use during pregnancy and lactation

The use of the drug during pregnancy and lactation is contraindicated. At the time of treatment, it is recommended to stop breastfeeding.

Special instructions

Avoid prolonged use, as at the same time, the incidence of side effects increases and bacterial resistance to gentamicin may develop.

Do not use the drug on the skin of the face due to the possibility of telangiectasia even after a short application.

Avoid contact with BetadermВ® in the eyes and periorbital region.

Some parts of the body (inguinal folds, axillary hollows, and perianal region) are more at risk for striae. Therefore, the duration of the drug in these areas should be limited.

With prolonged use of BetadermВ® on large surfaces of the skin with impaired integrity, there is the potential for absorption of gentamicin and, consequently, the development of symptoms of ototoxicity.

Do not use the drug under an occlusive dressing.

If there is an urgent need for a dressing, an air-tight dressing should be applied and no sealing, oilcloth dressing should be used.

In cases of fungal superinfection, additional use of the antifungal drug is necessary.

Use in pediatrics

Children are allowed to prescribe the drug from 2 years old only under strict indications and under the supervision of a doctor.

Due to the fact that in children the area of ​​skin in relation to body weight is larger and the epidermis is not well developed, with external use of the drug, it is possible to absorb a proportionally larger number of active substances and, therefore, there is a greater risk of developing systemic side effects.

Use the drug in children as soon as possible and with all precautions.
