Hoe Beprogent (Betamethasone + Gentamicin) Ointment 15g

Hoe Beprogent Ointment is a combination topical medicine containing Betamethasone and Gentamicin as its active ingredients, combining a corticosteroid with an antibiotic to help treat certain inflammatory skin conditions complicated by bacterial infection. If you've been prescribed this ointment, it's helpful to know that some people may experience mild burning, itching, or skin irritation after application, while prolonged or excessive use may lead to skin thinning. This medicine is intended for short-term treatment and should only be applied to the affected areas as directed by your doctor. Avoid using it on the face, broken skin, or large areas of the body unless specifically instructed by your healthcare provider.

Apply a thin layer to the affected area 1 to 2 times daily for the duration prescribed by your doctor. Use the smallest amount needed to control the condition and avoid prolonged use to reduce the risk of skin thinning and other corticosteroid-related side effects.

• Burning or stinging sensation
• Itching
• Skin redness
• Dryness at the application site
• Skin thinning with prolonged use
• Stretch marks with long-term use
• Changes in skin pigmentation

Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the tube tightly closed after each use and store it out of reach of children.

• Apply only a thin layer to the affected skin
• Use only for the duration prescribed by your doctor
• Avoid applying to the eyes, face, broken skin, or open wounds unless directed
• Wash your hands after application unless treating the hands
• Do not cover the treated area with airtight dressings unless advised
• Store below 30°C away from heat and moisture

Apply a thin layer of the ointment to the affected skin once or twice daily, or as directed by your doctor, and gently rub it in until absorbed. Wash your hands before and after application unless your hands are the area being treated. Avoid covering the treated area with airtight dressings unless instructed by your doctor.

Hoe Beprogent Ointment typically has a shelf life of approximately 24 to 36 months from the manufacturing date when stored unopened under the recommended conditions. Always check the expiry date before use.

The active ingredients are Betamethasone, a topical corticosteroid that reduces inflammation and itching, and Gentamicin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic that helps treat susceptible bacterial skin infections.

This ointment should not be used by individuals with known hypersensitivity to betamethasone, gentamicin, other aminoglycoside antibiotics, or any ingredient in the formulation. It should not be applied to untreated viral infections such as herpes simplex or chickenpox, untreated fungal infections, tuberculosis of the skin, or broken skin unless directed by a doctor. Avoid prolonged use on the face, groin, or skin folds unless specifically prescribed.

When used as directed, systemic drug interactions are uncommon because only small amounts are absorbed through the skin. Avoid applying other topical corticosteroids or antibiotics to the same area unless recommended by your doctor, as this may increase the risk of irritation or skin thinning. There are no known food interactions with this topical medicine.
