Experiences with

Betnovate

I was prescribed Betnovate cream which I have to say has done a good job of clearing up a lot of the rash (it did end up spreading to wrist, elbows & behind knee creases, right down the front of both shins and at the base of my neck. Well the outcome is I still have numb feet.

I also use a fair amount of creams regularly including betnovate for my scalp psoriasis and double base gel as a good moisturiser, along with a long list of other creams such as hydrocortisone cream and enstilar.

I have been prescribed Betnovate, a steroid cream. I can’t say I have noticed much of a different - it hasn’t really improved but it hasn’t got any worse either. They have offered triamcinolone injections or PUVA light therapy to try and loosen the skin around my wrist.

Hello I would be really grateful for any help, I have a very dry scalp, I tried shampoos, conditioners but cant find any that do not dry my scalp or give me spots on my scalp,Ive been to my GP and was prescribed Betnovate scalp application but that hasnt helped me. Thanks in advance Frank

I know that antihistamines are linked to high eye pressure & my glaucoma consultant has already told me that you can ‘reach the point of no return’ even with topical steroids so I’m reluctant to continue with Betnovate especially as I’ve already been using it for over six weeks.

This last month I've had constant itching off my scalp - the crown area red and warm - GP gave me Betnovate and I was taking Piriton. Twice I've been to the hairdresser's but it still red and warm so haven't had my colour done and now very grey !!

Dermovate and Betnovate instructions say not for the face.

But they have prescribed Daktacort ( for possible angular cheilitis) , Aciclovir in both cream and tablet form, Betnovate and most recently Fluticasone ( for the last 6 weeks). None of these treatments have had any positive effect.

Tried Betnovate no good. Doctor put me on prednisolone started on 6 a day for a week then tapered down to 2 and then off them. Have had several courses of prednisolone. Saw dermatologist who just prescribed more betnovate. And then trimovate.

Hello, after 2 years of treatment I stopped my Biologic Benepali last April 2021 (after 2 yrs it caused a severe, itchy, neck, chest and face rash that wouldn't go away with Betnovate and Piriton).

He had some betnovate prescribed to help 2 weeks ago but he seems to be at a standstill. Please can someone tell me it gets better? And how? we've never had sex because he knew he had awful pain- we thought this would be the fix.

I have tried using Epiderm cream and then small amounts of Betnovate but they aren't making any difference. Do any of you have any idea what can be causing it?

Morning everybody I have Lupus SLE and along with nasal scabs and blood blisters in my mouth I have the most incredibly itchy ear canals that drives me insane - I have some betnovate lotion drops which is really the only thing that helps the trouble is after I put them in I can’t hear properly for a

Apart from a runny nose with chemotherapy (Carboplatin/Pemetrexed) I'm also getting sores that are very similar to cold sores - tried betnovate cream, but not much good, then tried Zovirax which is better, but doesn't clear them and still forms scabs that bleed. It can be very sore and painful.

I have been putting doctor prescribed Betnovate on, but a) it’s not helping and b) if caused by steroids it seems a bit counterproductive to put more steroid cream on. Does anyone else have this problem and if so what do you use to help alleviate the problem please?

Hi All - itch under control with two tubes of Betnovate and antihistamine at night from G P - onto over the counter antihistamine soon and using Aveenocream at the moment - is it a PMR thing? Seems to coincide with dry eyes (using drops) - may be gall stone thing?

I have diabetes, but the doctor says this is not related, I keep having a split foreskin, usually in the same place, I have Betnovate cream but this only gives small relief and soon gets wiped off, as soon as I try and wash it or pull back the foreskin for any reason it splits again, the foreskin is

Prescribed Betnovate. He’s playing with psoriasis. This is because he knows I have to see Dermatology soon as been referred by Rheumy whose also playing with psoriasis due to previous nail issues. I’m starting to hate doctors Can’t use deodorant so am paranoid I stink although been told not.

I went to see a General Practioner a week or so later and I was told I had dermatitis and was told to use a Nizoral Shampoo and a Betnovate Scalp Applicator to help relieve the issue. I used them for a month and they had not helped at all.
