(Betamethasone Dipropionate)

The active ingredient in Diprolene Ointment is betamethasone dipropionate, which is a high-potency topical corticosteroid. It works by reducing inflammation in the skin. It decreases the release of substances in the body that cause redness, swelling, itching, and irritation. By calming the immune response in the affected skin, Diprolene Ointment helps improve symptoms linked to inflammatory skin conditions such as psoriasis and eczema.

Follow all directions given to you by your doctor and read all documents provided, including the full Prescribing Information and patient information, before using Diprolene Ointment. However, the following is a synopsis of the general guidelines for the use of Diprolene Ointment:

• Wash your hands before and after applying the ointment, unless your hands are the treated area. Apply a thin film of Diprolene Ointment to the affected skin area. Gently rub the ointment into the skin until it is absorbed. Apply only to the affected area and avoid spreading it to surrounding healthy skin unless advised.
• Use the medication once daily, or twice daily if directed by your healthcare provider.
• Do not cover the treated area with occlusive dressings, bandages, or wraps unless your healthcare provider specifically instructs you to do so.
• Avoid use on the face, groin, or underarms unless directed by a healthcare professional.
• Do not use for longer than prescribed, as prolonged use increases the risk of adverse reactions and adrenal suppression.

• Burning, stinging, or itching at the application site.
• Dryness or scaling of the skin.
• Redness or mild irritation.

These are not all of the possible side effects of Diprolene Ointment. You should always seek medical advice from your healthcare provider for any questions or concerns about your medical condition or treatment. Read all patient information that comes with this medication. You can also report adverse reactions to the Food and Drug Administration at www.fda.gov/medwatch or 1-800-FDA-1088.

Before starting Diprolene Ointment, it is crucial to discuss any existing health conditions with your healthcare provider. You should be sure that your healthcare provider is aware of all your medical conditions, including if you have:

• A history of hypersensitivity or allergic reactions to topical corticosteroids.
• Skin infections, including bacterial, fungal, or viral infections.
• Thinning of the skin or poor skin healing.
• A history of glaucoma or cataracts.
• Conditions involving the adrenal gland or abnormal cortisol levels.
• Plans to use the medication on large surface areas or for prolonged periods.

• Have a known hypersensitivity to betamethasone dipropionate or any component of the formulation.

Many patients notice improvement in itching, redness, and swelling within a few days of starting treatment. For some skin conditions, it may take one to two weeks of consistent use to see full benefit. If there is no improvement within the timeframe advised by your healthcare provider, further evaluation may be needed.
