What is Betnovate Scalp Application?
Betnovate Scalp Application, a prescription-only dermatological medication, is produced by GlaxoSmithKline UK to address scalp-related skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. Its key component is betamethasone valerate 0.1%, a corticosteroid with anti-inflammatory properties that aid in soothing irritated skin. Administered twice daily to dry, flaky, or inflamed areas, it effectively alleviates redness, itching, and irritation. It's recommended for use alongside scalp moisturisers and emollients to manage scalp eczema.

Betnovate serves as a remedy for itchy scalp conditions like atopic eczema and seborrheic dermatitis that can cause irritation and discomfort.
