Diprolene Cream


Generic Name: Betamethasone Dipropionate (Augmented) Cream and Ointment (bay-tah-METH-uh-zone die-PRO-pee-oh-nate)
Brand Name: Diprolene

Diprolene Cream is used for:

Reducing itching, redness, and swelling associated with many skin conditions.

Diprolene Cream is a topical corticosteroid. It works by depressing the formation, release, and activity of different cells and chemicals that cause swelling, redness, and itching.

Do NOT use Diprolene Cream if:

  • you are allergic to any ingredient in Diprolene Cream or to another corticosteroid (eg, prednisone)

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

Before using Diprolene Cream:

Some medical conditions may interact with Diprolene Cream. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:

  • if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding
  • if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement
  • if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances
  • if you have thinning of the skin, a skin infection, tuberculosis, chickenpox, shingles, measles, a positive TB skin test, or have recently been vaccinated

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Diprolene Cream. Because little, if any, of Diprolene Cream is absorbed into the blood, the risk of it interacting with another medicine is low.
