Hi,

Incomplete data lie age, gender, purpose of using the medicated creams, and duration of treatment not mentioned! It is not advisable to use these medications without consulting a dermatologist. Brevoxyl cream is known to cause itching, irritation, peeling and reddened skin. Whereas Diprovate contains a potent steroid Betamathasone. It is known to cause burning sensation (initially), thinning of the skin, bruising, skin discoloration, prominent blood vessels (telangiectasias). It may also cause acne (pimples) abnormal facial hair growth and striae. In view of the above I advise you to consult a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali, General & Family Physician
