Pharmaniaga Dermasole Ointment 15g

Pharmaniaga Dermasole Ointment is a potent topical corticosteroid, with betamethasone valerate as its active ingredient, applied to the skin to help calm inflamed or irritated areas. Because it's a stronger-strength steroid ointment, it's generally intended for short-term use under medical guidance rather than continuous long-term application. Some people notice mild burning or stinging when it's first applied, and with prolonged or excessive use, skin thinning, stretch marks, or changes in skin colour can develop. If you're using a potent topical steroid for the first time, it's helpful to know that using only a thin layer over the affected area, rather than a thick coating, is both more effective and safer for your skin in the long run.

Apply a thin layer to the affected area two to three times daily, using it for the shortest period necessary, typically not beyond one to two weeks unless otherwise directed by your doctor.

• Burning or stinging sensation at the application site
• Itching
• Skin thinning with prolonged use
• Stretch marks (striae)
• Folliculitis
• Changes in skin pigmentation
• Increased visibility of small blood vessels (telangiectasia)
• Acne-like breakouts with overuse

Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and excess heat. Keep the tube tightly closed and out of reach and sight of children.

• Apply only a thin layer; a small amount covers a large area effectively
• Limit use to short courses as directed by your doctor
• Avoid using on the face, groin, or underarms unless specifically instructed
• Don't use airtight dressings over the treated area unless advised
• Store away from heat and direct sunlight
• Wash hands after application to prevent unintended spread

Apply a thin layer of Pharmaniaga Dermasole Ointment to clean, dry, intact skin over the affected area, usually two to three times daily, gently rubbing it in. Wash your hands before and after application, and avoid covering the area with an airtight dressing unless your doctor specifically advises it.

Pharmaniaga Dermasole Ointment generally remains stable for around 24 to 36 months when unopened. Always check the expiry date on the tube before use.

Betamethasone valerate 0.1%.

Should not be applied to skin with untreated bacterial, viral, or fungal infections, or used on conditions such as rosacea, perioral dermatitis, or acne vulgaris. Avoid use if you have a known hypersensitivity to betamethasone or other corticosteroids, and use in children should only be under close medical supervision.

Topical corticosteroids generally carry a low risk of interaction with other medicines when used correctly on limited skin areas. However, combining multiple topical steroid products on the same area, or using this ointment over large areas of skin for extended periods, can increase systemic absorption, so following your doctor's instructions on duration and coverage area is important.
