Side Effects
Eye: Vision, blurred.
Prolonged and intensive treatment with highly active corticosteroid preparations may cause local atrophic changes in the skin such as striae, thinning, and dilatation of the superficial blood vessels, particularly when occlusive dressings are used or when skin folds are involved.
As with other topical corticosteroids, prolonged use of large amounts or treatment of extensive areas can result in sufficient systemic absorption to produce the features of hypercorticism. This effect is more likely to occur in infants and children, and if occlusive dressings are used in infants, the napkin may act as an occlusive dressing. In rare instances, treatment of psoriasis with corticosteroids ( or its withdrawal) is thought to have provoked the pustular form of the disease.
The Betamethasone preparations are usually well tolerated, but if signs of hypersensitivity appear, application should be stopped immediately.
