  • This Fact Sheet Provides Information to Patients with Eczema and Their Carers. About Topical Corticosteroids How to Apply Topic
    This fact sheet provides information to patients with eczema and their carers. About topical corticosteroids You or your child’s doctor has prescribed a topical corticosteroid for the treatment of eczema. For treating eczema, corticosteroids are usually prepared in a cream or ointment and are applied topically (directly onto the skin). Topical corticosteroids work by reducing inflammation and helping to control an over-reactive response of the immune system at the site of eczema. They also tighten blood vessels, making less blood flow to the surface of the skin. Together, these effects help to manage the symptoms of eczema. There is a range of steroids that can be used to treat eczema, each with different strengths (potencies). On the next page, the potencies of some common steroids are shown, as well as the concentration that they are usually used in cream or ointment preparations. Using a moisturiser along with a steroid cream does not reduce the effect of the steroid. There are many misconceptions about the side effects of topical corticosteroids. However these treatments are very safe and patients are encouraged to follow the treatment regimen as advised by their doctor. How to apply topical corticosteroids How often should I apply? How much should I apply? Apply 1–2 times each day to the affected area Enough cream should be used so that the of skin according to your doctor’s instructions. entire affected area is covered. The cream can then be rubbed or massaged into the Once the steroid cream has been applied, inflamed skin. moisturisers can be used straight away if needed.

Keywords: betamethasone valerate • foam • psoriasis • topical corticosteroids Topical corticosteroids have been ranked in four groups consisting of seven classes ranging from ultra-high potency preparations (class 1) to low-potency prepara- tions (class 7). Betamethasone valerate (BMV) is a mid-potency corticosteroid (class 3–5, depending on the dosage form), used topically to relieve inflammatory skin conditions. It is used as a treatment for psoriasis, atopic dermatitis and other corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses. The vehicle used to deliver topical drugs can influence the performance of these drugs.
