How it works:
Faq for medicine:
A: Betamine is a glucocorticoid and belongs to a group of medicines called steroids also known as corticosteroids. These are synthesized naturally in the body and help to maintain health and well-being. Two main classes of corticosteroids, glucocorticoids, and mineralocorticoids are involved in a wide range of physiologic processes, including stress response, immune response, and regulation of inflammation, carbohydrate metabolism, protein catabolism, blood electrolyte levels, and behavior.
Q: Is Betamine safe to use?
A: Betamine is safe to use when used for an indication in a dose as advised by your doctor.
Q: Does Betamine cause hair loss?
A: Betamine is not known to cause hair loss. Rather, it may cause an increase in body hair growth (especially in females) on long-term use. Talk to your doctor if you get excessive hair growth on your body while taking Betamine.
Q: Is Betamine an antibiotic?
A: Betamine is not an antibiotic. It's a glucocorticoid.
Q: Does Betamine work in retention edema?
A: Betamine is not used in retention edema. Glucocorticoids can cause fluid and salt retention as a side effect thereby causing edema or aggravating edema. However, Betamine does not normally cause retention of salt and water and the risk of inducing edema and hypertension is almost negligible.
Q: Is Betamine stronger than hydrocortisone?
A: Betamine and hydrocortisone belong to the same class of medications (i.e. corticosteroids) and produce almost similar pharmacological responses. The effect may vary based on the conditions and individual response. Always follow doctor’s advice regarding its use.
Q: Can I take Betamine with ibuprofen?
A: An increase in the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding may occur if non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) like ibuprofen are taken with corticosteroids. Talk to your doctor before taking Betamine with any NSAID.
Q: Does Betamine expire?
A: Yes, Betamine does expire. All the medicines come with an expiry date mentioned on the pack. You must check the expiry date before using any medicine.
Q: Does Betamine cause insomnia?
A: Betamine can cause insomnia (inability to sleep). Most people find that using this medicine for a short time causes no problems. Talk to your doctor if you experience insomnia while taking Betamine.
Q: Does Betamine cause weight gain?
A: Betamine can cause weight gain especially when high doses taken for a long time or repeated short courses are taken. Please consult your doctor if you experience weight gain after taking Betamine.
Q: Is Betamine a hydrocortisone?
A: Betamine is not a hydrocortisone. These are two different drugs which belong to the same group of medicines called steroids (also known as corticosteroids).
Q: Is Betamine over the counter?
A: Betamine is not an over the counter (OTC) medicine. It is available only when prescribed by a doctor.
