Betamethasone

Betamethasone is a powerful medication classified as a corticosteroid, used to reduce inflammation, swelling, and redness caused by various conditions such as allergies, skin diseases, or asthma. It works by suppressing the body's immune response, which helps decrease tissue inflammation. Betamethasone can be applied as a cream, injection, or taken orally, depending on the condition. While effective, it should be used under medical supervision to minimize potential side effects like skin thinning or hormonal imbalances, especially with long-term use.
