About Betamethasone Valerate
Betamethasone Valerate is a synthetic corticosteroid ester, classified as a medium-to-high potency topical steroid. It exhibits strong anti-inflammatory, anti-pruritic, and vasoconstrictive properties. Due to its rapid absorption and strong therapeutic index, it is widely used in the treatment of chronic and acute skin conditions.
Mechanism of Action:
Betamethasone Valerate binds to intracellular corticosteroid receptors, modulating gene expression to suppress pro-inflammatory cytokines and mediators. It reduces erythema, swelling, and itching while preventing the recurrence of chronic dermatological symptoms.
Primary Indications:
- Atopic dermatitis and eczema
- Psoriasis vulgaris
- Contact dermatitis (allergic and irritant)
- Seborrheic dermatitis
- Pruritus and inflammation
- Lichen planus
- Discoid lupus erythematosus
- Insect bite reactions
- Other corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses
Its safety and efficacy, especially in short- to medium-term treatment, make Betamethasone Valerate a core component in dermatology therapeutics.
