Betaderm (betamethasone) "Wow, this actually worked wonders. I had a very serious skin infection as well as eczema, and within a week of using it twice daily after baths, it completely relieved the symptoms, and blisters started to scab and heal! I still have had to use Betaderm on and off for the last few months, but in much more moderate amounts. After having used numerous other creams, this is the only one that worked!"

Diprosone (betamethasone) "I served in the Middle East during the Iraq war. The weather in the desert was over 130 degrees, so I developed eczema. My mom was a nurse in Mexico and told me about Diprosone. I tried it, and it worked. So I have never looked back."

"I had some real rash and redness from scratching too much. My doctor prescribed this cream for me, and within a week, my skin condition improved, and I stopped scratching myself. I still have some skin discoloration, but it is improving. Good cream for sure."

Diprosone (betamethasone) "I have had odd eczema on and off for about 3 years. I tried 7 different hand creams before finally visiting my GP. He wasn't sure if my condition even was a classic case of eczema, as it was not like the majority of other patients' he had seen: mine was itchy every night, red, dry, and flaky, and in distinct circle shapes on the back of my left hand. Sometimes, it bled. Scabies cream did not work for me, so I was prescribed Diprosone. My extremely uncomfortable 'eczema' had disappeared after about a week of applying a thin layer of the cream, twice daily. It has left slightly pale patches on my hand where the condition used to be, but my skin is back to normal and there are no more irritating symptoms (like itching) ever. I would highly recommend this cream for anyone with a similar condition."

"Our daughter mistakenly touched a halogen light bulb and easily received a bad burn. Red and blistered. Aloe vera did not help, but when this cream was applied, the pain disappeared within 5 minutes. She was able to take a nap, and when she woke up, she was back to a normal 5-year-old without any pain from the burn. NOTE: We are living in Indonesia, and a local person told us about this solution. Purchased a 15 g tube at the pharmacy for $3.50 USD without a prescription. Using this cream caused no burn scarring on a treated burn, according to the local person suggesting it. We will use it maybe once or twice and then treat for a normal burn until the affected area has returned to normal. Not needed long-term."

"I suffer from a painful, red rash on my upper chest. I used to use sulfacetamide that worked well but my insurance company removed it from their coverage and the price went up from a few $ to more than $300 for a small bottle. Accordingly, I switched to betamethezone and it works just as well. So does an elemental sulfur-containing cream, but it was too effective and resulted in mild chemical burns."

"I've had eczema all my life, at 24, it now comes in flare-ups every now and then, generally when the weather changes or other allergies, i.e., hay fever that go hand in hand. I've used probably most things on the market, from oily emollients to creams, and I seem to have settled with this. Other creams don't have the same effect this does, it's easy to apply, doesn't feel greasy, and soaks in quickly. But it is the only cream that really works. Big eczema flare-ups are dealt with in days as opposed to weeks previously, and it stops the urge to itch. Honestly, if you suffer with eczema, you need to make sure you have this, it's a must."
