I've been dealing with some red rashes and a bit of a fungal infection near my private areas. I read about using Onabet B cream, but I'm not exactly sure how long I should be applying it. Should I do it for 2 weeks or maybe extend it to 3? Would applying it twice a day be enough? Just want to make sure I'm doing it right to get rid of this quickly. What do you think?

Onabet-B cream is commonly used for fungal infections. For red rashes near the private parts, you should apply Onabet-B cream twice a day for a duration of 2 weeks. If the symptoms do not improve after 2 weeks, you can continue using it for an additional week for a total of 3 weeks.

I've been using BETNOVATE CREAM regularly for my skin, mostly for fairness and acne, and I'm starting to wonder about the long-term effects. My family doctor mentioned that I shouldn't use it so often. What are the potential side effects of continuing its use? Also, are there safer alternatives that I could consider?

Long-term use of Betnovate cream, a strong steroid, can cause skin thinning, increased acne, pigmentation changes, and may worsen skin issues over time. It's best to stop regular use and consult a dermatologist for safer options, like non-steroid creams, retinoids, or other acne treatments suited to your skin.
