Indications & Clinical Uses

Corti-Due is used to treat inflammatory skin conditions that are also infected or at risk of infection. It is particularly effective in managing conditions where both inflammation and bacterial infection are present.

  • Eczema: Reduces inflammation, redness, and itching associated with eczema while treating any bacterial infection.
  • Dermatitis: Alleviates symptoms of dermatitis, including swelling and itching, and combats bacterial infections.
  • Psoriasis with secondary bacterial infection: Helps manage the inflammatory symptoms of psoriasis while addressing any secondary bacterial infections.

How It Works

  • Betamethasone valerate exerts its anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects by binding to glucocorticoid receptors, which modulates gene transcription and reduces inflammation. Fusidic acid, an antibacterial agent, inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by interfering with elongation factor G, thereby preventing bacterial growth and treating infections.

Side Effects

Corti-Due may cause several side effects, ranging from common to serious or rare. It is important to be aware of these potential reactions when using the medication.

Common Side Effects

  • Itching at the application site.
  • Skin dryness or irritation.
  • Temporary redness or swelling.
  • Mild burning sensation.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Allergic reactions, such as rash or hives.
  • Skin thinning or discoloration with prolonged use.
  • Increased risk of bacterial resistance with extended use.
  • Systemic absorption leading to corticosteroid side effects, such as adrenal suppression.

Precautions & Warnings

Corti-Due should be used as directed by a healthcare professional to minimize the risk of adverse effects. Important precautions include:

  • Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes to prevent irritation or damage.
  • Do not use for prolonged periods or on large areas of the skin unless advised by a healthcare professional.
  • Perform a patch test before extensive use to check for any adverse reactions.
  • Avoid using the cream on broken or infected skin without medical advice.
  • Store below 30°C: Keep the tube tightly closed and out of reach of children.

Avoid Interactions

Corti-Due may interact with other medications, which can affect its efficacy or increase the risk of side effects. It is important to be aware of these potential interactions.

  • Topical antibiotics: May lead to increased resistance or reduced efficacy.
