I've been using Betamethasone valerate cream for a few weeks now to treat my psoriasis, and I'm starting to worry about the potential side effects. The burning and stinging sensations make me a bit anxious whenever I apply it. I'm wondering if anyone here has experienced severe reactions or any of the other urgent side effects listed? How long did it take for you to notice any side effects? I want to get a better understanding of what to expect and when to call my doctor.

I got really bad stomach issues and severe dizziness. I had to stop using it right away, talk to your doctor asap if you experience anything like that.

Be aware of Cushing's syndrome. I gained weight fast in my upper back and belly. Scary stuff. Don't ignore the symptoms.

I've had no issues with it so far. Just make sure to follow the instructions and not use it for too long.

I think my blood sugar went up when I used this cream. I started feeling really sleepy and thirsty all the time. I'm not sure if it's related, but it's something to keep an eye on.

I really hope you can use this. It's been a lifesaver for me with my psoriasis. I just keep an eye on any changes in my skin and overall health. If you aren't sure it's a good fit, talk to your doctor
