VALISONE DESCRIPTION
   
 
   
 

Manufactured by Schering. This medicine is a corticosteroid used to reduce itching, redness, and swelling associated with many skin conditions.

 

Why is Valison prescribed?

Valisone cream and lotion contain a combination of a steroid (betamethasone) and an antifungal drug (clotrimazole). Valisone is used to treat skin infections caused by fungus, such as athlete's foot, jock itch, and ringworm of the body.

Betamethasone treats symptoms (such as itching, redness, swelling, and inflammation) that result from fungus infections, while clotrimazole treats the cause of the infection by inhibiting the growth of certain yeast and fungus organisms. If the infection is not inflamed, your doctor may prescribe a different medication.

Where can I order Valisone from? Can I buy Valisone at Canadian Prices?

Yes, if you are from the U.S. then you can buy Valisone at Canadian prices. Currently we will only accept an order for Valisone from U.S. and Canadian residents. Both U.S. and Canadian residents require a prescription to purchase Valisone and when you order Valisone it will be delivered with express shipping.

Most important fact

When you use Valisone, you inevitably absorb some of the medication through your skin and into the bloodstream. Too much absorption can lead to unwanted side effects elsewhere in the body. To keep this problem to a minimum, avoid using large amounts of Valisone cream or lotion over wide areas, and do not cover it with airtight dressings such as plastic wrap or adhesive bandage unless specifically told to by your doctor. If widespread application is unavoidable, your doctor may order periodic tests to make sure your body is not absorbing too much of this medication.

How should you use Valisone?

Wash your hands before and after applying Valisone. If you are using Valisone lotion, shake it well before using. Valisone is for use only on the skin. Be careful to keep it out of the eyes, mouth, and vaginal area. Gently massage it into the affected area and surrounding skin twice a day, in the morning and evening. Use Valisone for the full time prescribed, even if your condition has improved. Valisone should be applied sparingly to the groin area, and it should not be used for longer than 2 weeks. Wear loose-fitting clothing. --If you miss a dose...Apply it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the one you missed and go back to your regular schedule. --Storage instructions...

Store at room temperature.

What side effects may occur?

Side effects cannot be anticipated. If any develop or change in intensity, inform your doctor as soon as possible. Only your doctor can determine if it is safe for you to continue using Valisone.

More common side effects may include:
Blistering, burning, dry skin, hives, infection, irritated skin, itching, peeling, reddened skin, skin eruptions and rash, stinging, swelling, tingling sensation

Less common side effects may include:
Acne, dryness, excessive hair growth, inflamed hair follicles, inflamed skin, irritated skin around mouth, irritation, loss of skin color, skin atrophy, softening of the skin, streaks in the skin

Possible food and drug interactions

Do not combine Valisone with other steroid creams. Use of more than one steroid-containing product increases the chance of side effects.

Special information if you are pregnant or breastfeeding

Pregnant women should not use steroid drugs in large amounts or for prolonged periods of time. The effects of Valisone during pregnancy have not been adequately studied. The medication should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefits justify the potential risk to the developing baby. It is not known whether Valisone appears in breast milk. Nursing mothers should use Valisone with caution and only when clearly needed.

Recommended Valisone dosage

ADULTS AND CHILDREN OVER 17 YEARS OLD "Jock Itch" (Tinea Cruris) or Fungal Skin Infections (Tinea Corporis)

Gently massage Valisone cream or lotion into the affected and surrounding skin areas twice a day, in the morning and the evening, for 2 weeks. Valisone should be applied sparingly to the groin area. Notify your doctor if there has been no improvement after 1 week of treatment. Athlete's Foot (Tinea Pedis)

Gently massage Valisone cream or lotion into the affected and surrounding skin areas twice a day, in the morning and the evening, for 4 weeks. Notify your doctor if there has been no improvement after 2 weeks of treatment.

Valisone Overdosage

Any medication used in excess can have serious consequences. A life-threatening overdose of Valisone, which is applied to the skin, is unlikely. However, misuse or overuse of Valisone can cause disorders such as Cushing's syndrome. Be sure to check with your doctor if you suspect such a problem.
