How it works
Valerate N Cream is a combination of two medicines: Betamethasone and Neomycin. Betamethasone is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen and itchy. Neomycin is an antibiotic. It stops bacterial growth on the skin by preventing the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions.
Quick Tips
Valerate N Cream is used for the treatment of bacterial skin infections. It should be applied to the affected areas as a thin film two or three times daily or as advised by your doctor. Do not use it more often or for longer than advised by your doctor. Do not apply it to broken skin and avoid getting it in your eyes, nose or mouth. Do not cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor.
