Dear lybrate-user, neither of the creams are recommended for fungus or seb dermatitis. Betnovate is a steroid containing cream that has the tendency to flare the fungal infection.

Hii, please donot use betnovate c on your pimples. It contains betamethasone cream which is a steroid. It will lead to permanent damage - skin thinning, redness, more and big pimples, infections, hairgrowth on your face when used unsupervised/ for wrong indications. Please consult a dermatologist for your acne. There are various reasons and it is very much curable. Donot use any over the counter products. Donot self medicate as it may lead to permanent damage to your face.

Betnovate cream is dangerous on face. Stop using it immediately. Acne is a common skin condition affecting teenagers as well as adults. Severity varies from person to person so does treatment.

So only we suggest donot self medicate as it is difficult for anyone other than dermatologist to tell what treatment protocol...more
