Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello,

I can understand your conenrn for the appearance of rash after using betamethasone foam for hair loss and psoriasis.

Let me first reassure and guide you that betamethasone foam do not cause any type of rash and is rather used for the treatment of rash itself. SO do not get confused with any relation of betamethasone foam causing rash.

There can be certain other reasons of the appearance of the rash. You can meet your dermatologist and can get guidance for the same after proper physical examination.

Tell the time you meet your dermatologist I prefer to give levocetrizine tablet fro the control of redness and itching.

All the best.
