About PROPYNATE CREAM

PROPYNATE CREAM belongs to a class of drugs called corticosteroids. It is used to reduce swelling and irritation on the skin. It helps to reduce itchiness and swelling of certain skin problems such as dermatitis (itchy, swelling of the skin), eczema (itchy, cracked, swollen or rough skin) or psoriasis (scales and itchy, dry patches). The swelling of the skin occurs when an allergic reaction or skin irritation releases several substances in the skin that widens blood vessels and cause itching, redness, pain, and swelling in the irritated area.

PROPYNATE CREAM contains Beclometasone, a steroid that works by acting inside skin cells and inhibiting the release of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause redness, itching, and swelling. When the skin reacts to any type of allergens, such chemicals are released normally.

Use PROPYNATE CREAM as prescribed. You are advised to use PROPYNATE CREAM for as long as your doctor has prescribed it based on your medical condition. PROPYNATE CREAM is for external use only. Avoid contact of PROPYNATE CREAM with nose, mouth, or eyes. In case PROPYNATE CREAM comes in contact with these areas accidentally, rinse with water thoroughly. Some people may experience skin redness, inflamed hair follicles, itching, blistering, or burning sensation at the site of application. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to PROPYNATE CREAM or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or a nursing mother, it is advised to consult a doctor before using PROPYNATE CREAM. Do not use PROPYNATE CREAM in more than prescribed doses, or on a large area of skin for a prolonged time as it may cause adverse effects. Do not wrap or cover the treated area with a bandage unless advised by your doctor. Avoid using PROPYNATE CREAM for more than 5 days in children and on the face. Avoid smoking or going near naked flames as the fabric (bedding, clothing, dressings) that is in contact with PROPYNATE CREAM catches fire and burns easily.
