Using betnovate for almost 10 years
My frind is using betnovate for more than 10 years. 10 years is long time to get used to such harmful cream.but now that she knows it's bad for skin she has stopped using it. But her skin is getting red patches and irritation.
How does she know that post stopping usgae of it, her skin is having no other medical issues and is healthy ? She is only concerned that usage of all this year's has not left any irreversible impact on her skin which are not known otherwise.

Please stop using betnovate cream as it contains strong steroids which will cause serious side effects. Steroid induced pimples, photosensitivity that is sun sensitivity, rosacea that is red face, atrophy that is skin thinning, stretch marks, pigmentation, dryness, severe itching and hair growth on the face etc to name a few side effects. Reports of skin cancer are also there. Please don't use any such Steroid containing fairness creams. You will require treatment to slowly put you off this cream by using some substitute as the skin becomes addicted to the steroid. Hence you are facing such a problem. Please send photos through online consult option for proper examination and treatment.,
