Mode of Action

Betamethasone dipropionate is a synthetic fluorinated corticosteroid. It is active topically and produces a rapid and sustained response in inflammatory dermatoses. It is also effective in less responsive conditions e.g. scalp psoriasis, chronic plaque psoriasis of the hands and feet. Salicylic acid has keratolytic action. It softens keratin, loosens cornified epithelium and desquamates the epidermis. It aids in the penetration of betamethasone.
