Betasol contains a highly active topical corticosteroid called clobetasol propionate which healthcare professionals prescribe for treating various skin conditions. In particular, these include eczema, seborrheic and contact dermatitis, psoriasis, lichen planus (tiny red or purplish bumps on the skin, nails, scalp), and discoid lupus erythematosus (round, disk-shaped skin lesions).
Clobetasol propionate reduces skin itching, swelling, and redness (i.e. anti-inflammatory action). Moreover, it actively works against scale and plaque formation in skin conditions like eczema psoriasis, discoid lupus erythematosus and lichen planus.
Healthcare professionals use clobetasol propionate for skin diseases that are not responding to less active topical steroidal products.
