How It Works

Betamethasone Valerate, the active ingredient in Betaderm Lotion, acts as a topical corticosteroid by:

Reducing inflammation and allergic reactions

Decreasing the activity and density of mast cells and eosinophils

Inhibiting cytokine production by lymphocytes, monocytes, and mast cells

Limiting the metabolism of arachidonic acid to reduce swelling and redness

Regular use helps calm inflamed skin and relieve persistent itching.
