About Daivobet Ointment

BETAMETHASONE+CALCIPOTRIOL is a combination of two medicines, namely: Betamethasone and Calcipotriol. Betamethasone works by inhibiting the release of chemical messengers that cause inflammation and redness. Calcipotriol helps in bringing the rate of skin cell growth back to normal. Together, BETAMETHASONE+CALCIPOTRIOL helps in treating psoriasis.
 
BETAMETHASONE+CALCIPOTRIOL is for external use only. Take a pea-sized amount onto your finger and apply it directly onto the affected area. You are advised to use BETAMETHASONE+CALCIPOTRIOL for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as itching and skin exfoliation. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time.
