A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.
Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.
Diprolene is an anti-inflammatory eczema and psoriasis treatment medication available by prescription and used to provide skin itch relief for people with either condition. Betamethasone Dipropionate is a corticosteroid drug that suppresses the body’s inflammatory response so that the skin’s epidermal layer is not as strongly affected, and the person experiences less itching, swelling, and redness because of it. You can buy Diprolene with a prescription here at Canpharm.

What is Diprolene used for?
Diprolene is prescribed to treat inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses, such as eczema and psoriasis.
How should I apply Diprolene?
Apply a thin film of Diprolene to the affected skin areas once or twice daily, as directed by your healthcare provider. Do not use it for longer than two consecutive weeks, and avoid using more than 50 grams per week. Do not cover the treated area with occlusive dressings unless instructed by your doctor.
What are the possible side effects of Diprolene?
Common side effects may include itching, redness, burning, stinging, or blistering of treated skin. Serious side effects can occur if the medication is absorbed through the skin, potentially leading to systemic effects. Contact your doctor if you experience severe skin irritation, signs of skin infection, blurred vision, or unusual tiredness.
Can children use Diprolene?
Diprolene is not approved for use in individuals younger than 13 years old. Children may absorb larger amounts of this medication through the skin, increasing the risk of side effects.
Are there any precautions I should take while using Diprolene?
Avoid applying Diprolene to the face, groin, or underarms unless directed by your doctor. Do not use it on open wounds or areas of infected skin. Inform your healthcare provider about any existing medical conditions, especially skin infections, diabetes, or adrenal gland problems.
Can I use Diprolene during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
It is not known whether Diprolene will harm an unborn baby. If you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant, discuss the potential risks and benefits with your doctor. If you are breastfeeding, avoid applying Diprolene to the chest area to prevent exposure to the nursing infant.
What should I do if I miss a dose?
If you miss a dose, apply it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and resume your regular dosing schedule. Do not apply extra medicine to make up for the missed dose.
Can I use Diprolene for other skin conditions?
Do not use Diprolene to treat any condition that has not been checked by your doctor. Using potent corticosteroids like Diprolene without medical supervision can lead to unwanted side effects or worsening of certain skin conditions.
Always consult your healthcare provider for personalized medical advice regarding Diprolene or any other medication.
