Why use Diproson?

  • Diproson contains a highly active topical corticosteroid called betamethasone dipropionate.
  • Healthcare professionals prescribe Diproson for treating various skin conditions. These include eczema, seborrheic and contact dermatitis, psoriasis, and lichen planus (tiny red or purplish bumps on the skin, nails, scalp).
  • Lastly, it treats the symptoms of Otitis externa (itching, scaling, flaking and redness of the outer ear canal).
  • Healthcare professionals use betamethasone dipropionate for inflammatory skin conditions that have not responded to less active topical steroids.
  • Betamethasone dipropionate works by reducing itching, swelling, and redness (i.e. anti-inflammatory action). Moreover, it actively works against plaque and scale formation in skin conditions like eczema psoriasis, discoid lupus erythematosus and lichen planus.
  • Apply once or twice daily.  It acts fast and maintains the high level of effect for long time.
  • The topical application of Diproson helps in delivering medicine directly to the affected area. Also, betamethasone dipropionate is superior to other topical corticosteroids. Thus, it ensures effective relief from symptoms of skin diseases like itching, redness, scaling, etc.

Diproson cream and lotion are both high-quality products manufactured at WHO approved manufacturing facilities.

Firstly, we do not recommend the use of Diproson by anyone who previously had an allergic reaction to any of the products’ ingredients. Secondly, it is not recommended to treat viral skin infections like herpes and varicella. Furthermore, it is not for women who are nursing, pregnant, or may become pregnant, or children below 12 years of age.

Symptoms

Seborrheic dermatitis
  • Seborrheic dermatitis is a skin condition portrayed by the appearance of skin flakes on scalp, hair, eyebrows, beard, and shoulders.
  • Its common causes include irritated, oily skin or dry skin, as well as fungal infection and eczema.
  • The most common symptom is an itchy scalp. Furthermore, this leads to redness on the itchy area of the scalp.
  • Topical corticosteroids help relieve the symptoms like itching, swelling and redness, as well as scaling.
Itching
  • Itching is also known as pruritus which means a desire to scratch.
  • Scratching temporarily relieves itching but can damage the skin, which sometimes results in more itching.
  • It is a typical symptom of hives, dry skin, eczema, contact dermatitis and fungal skin infections.
  • Diproson reduces itching, swelling and redness due to its anti-inflammatory action.
Eczema
  • Eczema is a chronic skin condition that causes the skin to become itchy, red, dry and cracked.
  • It can affect any part of the body but eczema mostly affects the back or front of the knee, around the neck, the hands, cheeks and scalp, as well as elbows.
  • Treatment for eczema includes using an emollient or oil-based moisturiser, topical corticosteroids, and avoiding triggers.
  • In eczema, Diproson helps in reducing redness, itching and swelling. Furthermore, it reduces dryness and crusting, as well as scaling.

 

Psoriasis
  • This is a chronic skin condition.
  • Psoriasis causes red, flaky and crusty patches of skin typically on the elbows, knees, scalp and lower back.
  • By and large, people with lighter skin have patches that appear red and scaly. In comparison, people with darker skin or brown or black skin, usually have patches that look dark brown, purple, brownish-grey, or ashen grey.
  • While there is no cure for psoriasis, there are ways to reduce symptoms with topical corticosteroids.
  • Thus, Diproson can be a suitable therapy as it reduces the troublesome symptoms of psoriasis e.g. itching, swelling, redness, scaling and plaque formation.
Lichen simplex
  • Lichen simplex begins with an initial itch, chronic scratching and/or rubbing. Subsequently, this causes further itching and inflammation, creating a vicious circle.
  • Lichen simplex is not contagious. In other words, it cannot spread from person to person.
  • It presents as scaly, dry patches of skin in easily accessible areas, such as the hands, arms, head and neck, as well as the genitals.
  • The patches of lichen simplex are hyperpigmented, lichenified plaques (single or multiple) that appear in irregular, oval, or angular shapes.
  • Lichenified skin is thickened and leathery with exaggerated skin creases. The body produces this thickened skin to protect itself from the chronic scratching and rubbing.
  • Furthermore, lichen simplex may be secondary to other skin disorders, such as psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, and contact dermatitis.
Otitis externa
  • Otitis externa is characterized by itching, scaling, flaking and redness of the outer ear canal.
  • It is normally a reaction to allergic triggers. Common contact allergens include nickel-containing earrings and various beauty products (For example, hairsprays, lotions, hair dye).
  • Treatment involves the use of topical corticosteroids, such as Diproson.
  • Additionally, one should avoid using cotton swabs, water, and other potential irritants in the ear, because these will aggravate the condition.
