Product Overview

Antebate Cream 0.05% is a topical corticosteroid cream manufactured in Japan under strict quality standards. It contains betamethasone butyrate propionate 0.05%, a potent steroid that quickly relieves inflammation, redness, swelling, and itching in various skin conditions. This cream is commonly used to treat eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, and related inflammatory skin disorders. The cream has a balanced, non-greasy feel, making it suitable for use on most skin areas.

Dosage Guidelines

Use as directed by your doctor. Apply a thin layer to the affected area once or twice daily (up to 3 times if instructed). Gently rub it in until absorbed. For external use only – avoid contact with eyes, inside the nose, or mouth. Do not apply to areas with active infections or open wounds unless directed by a doctor. Wash your hands after application (unless treating your hands). This medication is for short-term use; stop when your skin condition improves, as advised by your doctor. If your symptoms do not improve or worsen after 1–2 weeks, consult your doctor.

Possible Side Effects

• Local effects: Mild burning, stinging, itching, dryness, or redness at the application site.
• Skin changes: Long-term or heavy use can cause skin thinning, acne-like bumps, stretch marks, changes in hair growth, or skin color changes (light or dark patches).
• Infections: Steroid use can sometimes worsen or cause new skin infections (fungal or bacterial), especially if the area is kept covered.
• Rare serious effects: Using large amounts for a long time (especially on wide areas or under airtight wraps) or applying near the eyes may lead to glaucoma, cataracts, or adrenal suppression. These effects are rare with normal use.

Most side effects go away after stopping the cream. If you notice any severe or unusual reactions (such as vision problems, persistent irritation, or signs of infection), stop using it and consult a doctor.

FAQ

Q: What if I forget to apply a dose?
A: If you miss an application, apply it as soon as you remember. If it’s almost time for the next one, skip the missed dose and continue with your normal schedule. Do not apply extra to make up for a missed dose.

Q: How should I store this cream?
A: Store Antebate Cream at room temperature (below 30°C/86°F) in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Keep the container tightly closed and out of reach of children. Do not freeze.

Q: Should I cover the treated area after applying the cream?
A: Do not cover the treated area with airtight dressings or wraps unless directed by a doctor. Covering can increase absorption and side effects. If needed, use a breathable gauze or cloth to protect clothing, but avoid plastic or tight covers.

Q: Can I use Antebate Cream on my face?
A: Use on the face only with medical advice and caution. Facial skin is sensitive, and long-term use of potent steroids on the face can cause thinning or a rash around the mouth. If used on the face, apply only a small amount for a short time and avoid contact with the eyes and mouth. Follow your doctor’s instructions.

Q: Do I need to avoid sun exposure while using this product?
A: No special sun restrictions are needed. However, as your skin heals it may be more sensitive. Protect treated areas from intense sunlight by using sunscreen or covering the skin when spending long periods outdoors, to prevent irritation or sunburn.
